Curling Rules Canada
When will Canada rule the world?
“We’ll put curling rinks in Africa,
and hockey everywhere,
and force the Americans to use free health care,
We’ll bring winter to Australia
The France will drink poutine
Then we’ll conquer Britain
And install our queeeeeen”
Canada? Rule the world? LOL Haven’t you ever played Fallout, Canada gets annexed by the U.S.
Although Canada ruling the world isn’t that much of a bad idea………..free health care…..hmmmmm…..
CANADA PWNS THE OLYMPICS!!!

Members of the Order of Newfoundland and Labrador: Brad Gushue $10.37 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Bradley Raymond “Brad” Gushue, ONL (born June 16, 1980 in St. John’s, Newfoundland) is a Canadian curler from Paradise, Newfoundland and Labrador. Gushue along with teammates Russ Howard, Mark Nichols, Jamie Korab and Mike Adam represented Canada in curling in the 2006 Winter Olympics, where they won the gold medal by defeating Finland 104, including a dramatic 6-point sixth end in the final match, which was conceded after the 8-end minimum stipulated under Olympic rules. Gushue is a six-time (1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001) provincial junior curling champion in his home province of Newfoundland and Labrador, the last five as skip. In 2001, he not only won the provincial championship, but the national championship and world junior championships as well. Gushue was also the alternate for John Morris at the 1998 World Junior Championships which Morris won. After his outstanding career as a junior, Gushue made an impressive transition into men’s curling and his team quickly became a competitive force. Gushue qualified for the 2003 Nokia Brier where he finished with a 65 record. By the 2004 Nokia Brier, Gushue proved not only was he one of the best curlers in Newfoundland, but one of the best in Canada, when his team finished with an 84 record. The following year, Gushue qualified for the 2005 Tim Hortons Brier where his team once again finished 65. In May 2005, Gushue brought in former world champion Russ Howard as fifth man on the team, in order to bring experience and advice for the Canadian Olympic trials. Shortly afterwards, second Mike Adam volunteered to step aside for Howard, as the team felt that Howard’s skills and experience gave them the best chance to make it to the Olympics. Howard, playing as second, was given the right to cal… More: |
