In a healthy nation, Canada’s loss to the United States in the 2026 Olympic gold medal game would be only a disappointment. In Canada today, it feels like a verdict.
When a people that has systematically emptied politics, culture, and education of any serious aspiration to excellence discovers that even its last unquestioned superiority, hockey, no longer belongs to it, the sting is not merely athletic; it is spiritual. The game revealed what we have been at pains to avoid: Reality has returned, and it has no patience for our stubborn ideology.
Of course the US has its share of loons.
