Okay, this is not the best laid out website ever, but if you can see around the advertisements you will find a handy table to keep you informed of Canada's progress at the Olympics.
UPDATE: At posting time at least, Canada is ranked here as 75th.

Our mission
Are you that special person who - weary from trudging the endless superhighways - just longs to camp next to a glorious oasis of the mind? Do you desire to explore new frontiers, splash in shared ideas, fill your belly with the refreshing fruits of inspiration, and bask in the gentle rays of fond reflection?
Well, you can fuck right off. This, my friends, is not that place. This place is... The ShadowLands.

To cheer up those in the Great White North (well, those who care about the Olympics) :
This site lists 47 countries with medals, so far. This site mentions that 192 countries (and 12 territories) are participating in the Olympics. Instead of being 75th, Canada can proudly say that by their medal count they are tied for 48th place with 144 other countries.
Besides, Canada is still number one when it comes to showing beaver on their money.
Thanks Colonel. My guess is they must be ranking themselves in alphabetical order of the nations with zero medals - but yes, equal 48th is quite a respectable showing.
