Dima from Kazakhstan and Sergei from Ukraine have been in More Than Gold meetings all week in preparation for Major Sports Events in 2011 and 2012 in their countries. Today we met with one of the KAZ leaders to discuss how Dima and his network of friends in KAZ can provide volunteers for the Winter Asian Games a year from now.
In Men's Hockey, the USA got by a tough Swiss team and Canada dominated Russia. Finland and Slovakia also move into the semi-finals. I went to see the Freestyle Skiing Women's Aerials Finals. Australia got gold with China taking silver and bronze. Belarus had to settle for fourth and eighth. Again I met Canada's Man in Motion, Rick Hansen, who is one of the Olympic Village Mayors. Hansen, who was paralysed from the waist down after a car accident when he was 15, became a Canadian icon during his Man In Motion tour, which started on March 21, 1985. He covered 40,000 kilometres in 34 countries by wheelchair to raise money for spinal cord injury research.
