I think it could've used FAR LESS NATIVE stuff and a little more representation of Quebec and Atlantic Canada.

Less French, less Native stuff. Seriously, watching the opening, people would believe that aboriginal people are a huge part of the city when in fact...well, think about it this way...when's the last time anything from the aboriginal people affected your daily life in any way or you even gave anything in that part of Canada a thought?

I'd rather see Native stuff than french imo. It's more interesting and makes the ceremony FAR more entertaining to watch. They have stories, what do the french have? FYI I'm french so  I can say anything I like about them.

I got friends in Quebec and they told me everyone there disagrees with what the politicians are saying, and they're pretty annoyed because it reflects on them badly like they're complaining....
they said the amount of French that was spoken they weren't even expecting that much and the head Olympic honcho is from Belgium so he spoke quite a bit of it.
This as a publicity stunt for these fake ass politicians, typical politickin bullshit, I mean think of the publicity they get now when this has to do with the Olympics, it's an absolutely huge event and they know this they're not stupid, corrupt and fake yes.... but stupid they're not

Who was that Canadian MP who said, "We need Quebec as much as we need the AIDS virus" about 20 years ago? It may have been around the time of the whole Meech Lake brouhaha.

during the opening ceremony when they were describing how we became a nation, I was waiting for them to show how the French came over and kicked the natives' butts.

So much for the winning more medals than any other country claim, eh?
Swagger much?
Makes you want to be American. Those bastards are arrogant, but actually have something to show for it in the end. We, on the other hand, can't win being humble or cocky. Not really looking forward to the Gold medal hockey game, as we might not make it to the game. Of course, I hope we win gold. But............. the curse is stong.
