I thought it was really cool to have one of the Olympics actually include native people finally ... hopefully we will see more of that in any Olympics in the future no matter what nation.

Me too, Dan. I very much enjoyed the dress, dancing, imagery, and quotations.

Just heard Niki Yanovski on CBC and I loved her. Ièm sorry that my introduction to her was the terrible version of O Canada and the Olympic song. I wish Ièd first heard her do one of the beautiful jazz standards that I heard today.
