He isn't even the top newsmaker in Pittsburgh Sports.

Canada must be having a slow year.

5. Don't you guys also have a prime minister who prefers that the parliament not really function?
I would think that would be a big issue

2. C'mon...
scoring the gold-medal winning goal, in overtime, at a Canadian-hosted Olympic Games? More than half the population of Canada watched that game.

It may not be "serious" news, but it does represent a almost nation-wide, shared moment of Canadian celebration. As a country, we've have precious few of those types of unifying moments in recent history.

What Canadian story do you think was a bigger news item this year?
