I doubt this opening ceremony will top the 2008 China opening.

I actually like Canada's national anthem, especially since it is song all the time by crowds.
I thought her version was way too slow, but alright.

Too slow is an understatement, definitely took 2x as long.

Not as much of a wow factor as China, but this is still pretty cool.

Wow....I'm impressed...

Had these folks had the $300 Million + that China had used for there opening ceremony, no telling what we might be seeing.

This ceremony cost only $40 Million
