    All this does is remind me how HBC is American. We still have Roots Right? That's still Canadian?
    it sucks that companies like HBC and Nike sponser us at the olympics.. its like someone elses dad paying for our camping trip cause ours is too broke :(

    Yeah they may be busy making the US Teams clothing. Not sure how it worked out but it seemed like they sold out Canada and became the official clothier of American team in 2004 summer Olympics in Athens, and if memory serves me correctly the 2006 winter games in Turin.
