SkiFreak Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Anyone know if these games are getting any coverage in Canada? Just looked at CTV's website and didn't find anything. If you click on the Olympics button/tab all it brings up is CTV's online Olympic store which is still trying to sell Vancouver 2010 merchandise. I looked around in the sports section and couldn't find anything. Haven't checked TSN yet. Even though CBC currently doesn't have the rights, I looked thru their amatuer sports section but found nothing. If they want this event to stick around, the IOC better shop it around to the media. If it wasn't for Gamesbids, I wouldn't have even known that this event was on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkiFreak Posted August 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 I just checked the TSN webpage. There is TV coverage on TSN2, but no articles/vid clips on their webpage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faster Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Canada came close to a medal in fencing today. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faster Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Now I am disappointed. Canada won 5 medals today including 2 gold and it hasn't been reported on any major media station that I could find. They may not be high profile but 60 people are representing Canada proudly in Singapore and I expect some acknowledgement of their achievements.

Lirodon Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I saw a daily show hosted by Catriona Le May Doan on Rogers Sportsnet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkiFreak Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 So we closed out the event with 12 medals: CBC: Canada closes Youth Olympics with bronze What's interesting, this is the first article I've seen on CBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
