I am sure he would just love to do so as he has appeared in lots of photo ops but I guess Bary P is now getting jealous. ;D ;D
lets see just how many photo ops gordo will show up in after the Olympics are over and the news breaks about how much these Olympics are really going to cost us,especially when you look at all the jobs that are going to be lost or down sized in the education system,i don't think its just coincidence that the Olympics are here and way over budget and at the same time every school board in the province has been underfunded and  they are all short millions for the upcoming school year.we all know were his priorities are and thats making  all his rich buddies even richer meanwhile the working stiffs take it up the hooey again.

As opposed to Carol James priorities....  Tax all of Gordo's rich buddies so that they leave town, meanwhile the working stiffs take it up the hooey again......

But we digress.

Let's keep this thread to your guesses as to who will be lighting the torch.  ::)

Wayne Gretsky!
Terry Fox was a Hero, but not a sports hero (his Mom "Betty" will carry it though)
Karen Magnusson and Nancy Green Raine will carry it as well (being B.C. olympic medalists of the past)
It'll be a good show.
The entertainment will include:
DELETED, DELETED, DELETED, and DELETED.
Special effects will include:
DELETED
and also there will be:
DELETED.

Personally I don't give a rats hairy behind who is going to light the fire as long it is a CANADIAN and an Athlete. Seeing Schwarzenegger, a FOREIGNER and drinking buddy of Gordo, run with the flame through Stanley Park just did it for me and the Olympic Circus.

Ricky Julian and Bubbles.  How cool would that be?!?! crowd would go nuts.

I'd like to see Joe Sakic involved somehow.  He's not appreciated enough compared to others.  He epitamises what ANY sport should be about.  And Olymics IS about celebrating sports isn't it?
