117.0. "How are Canadians doing in Olympics so far ?" by POTARU::COUPAL (Had mental vacation, Anita ;-)) Fri Sep 23 1988 21:14

        Being at the nadir of Canada (but same time zone as Korea), I 
        don't get too many news about Canadian performance.

    That is Canada's first medal. Big Ben ran the 100 in 9.79 (as everyone
    around the world knows by now). 
    
    Does anyone know if Canada still has medal hopes left or was that
    it?

    We won a bronze in Team Dressage, an equestrian event.
    
    
    We have a good chance for a medal in show jumping, Ian Millar who
    leads the Canadian team is ranked #1 in the world.
    
    We also have chances in boxing, synchronized swimming, and yachting.
    
    Keep watching... more to come.
