The opening ceremonies for the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games are 100 days away.
The Hudson’s Bay Company will unveil the Canadian Olympic team uniforms at 2pm today at the Distillery District in Toronto.
Team Canada’s hockey jersey was officially unveiled in early October.
Canada will be going into the Sochi Olympics on a high note. Canada received 26 medals at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games — 14 of them gold. It was the most gold any country has ever won at a Winter Games.
This time around, sports data consulting company, Infostrada, predicts Canada will win 32 medals, with only 11 gold.
Meanwhile, in Sochi, there are problems with work delays, massive cost overruns and allegations of corruption. Also, some forecasters are predicting a warm winter with not enough snow to cover ski runs and snowboard half-pipes.
