With the eyes of the international sports community watching closely VANOC has to balance staging the best Games while helping Canadians win medals. “We would probably always want more, but we’re happy with what we’ve got,” said Cross Country Canada interim executive director Bruce Jeffries. “If we’re not able to deliver a medal, we would be bitterly disappointed. VANOC is really committed to seeing Canadian athletes do well. VANOC’s first priority is to run a great and fair Games. They are working hard to help us within the rules.” – read the full article here.
