Jamie Sale and David Pelletier are good skaters and good guys.
But then, why don't we have three gold medals? (at the Olympics) They are right you know..they should give theirs back!

If I was one of the Canadian skaters, I would have REFUSED the Gold Medal unless they stripped the Russians of their ill-gotten gain. Giving a second Gold to them just shows the IOC's complicity in this whole farce.
As far as I'm concerned, they can take their damn Olympics, together with The UN, and dont let the door hit them in the A**!

Bingo. By allowing the Russian pair to keep their illicitly acquired gold medals, the Russian officials are being rewarded for their attempted fraud. Downgrading them to silver would have been more than fair.

They are right you know..they should give theirs back! I disagree... as far as the Russians know, they received it legitimately. I've not heard them implicated yet.
Not that I'm anti-candian-- heck, I'm good friends with several from the St. Catherines area.
