closing ceremony flag bearer
Who do you think should carry the flag in the closing ceremony?
My suggestion is Joannie Rochette for exempifying Olympic spirit.
I would have suggested Clara Hughes for becoming an truly great Olympian (only 4 other athletes have ever earned Summer and Winter medals and she is the only multiple winner) but as she carried the flag in I suspect this might exclude her.

The two obvious choices are Rochette (who is probably emotionally drained) or Bilodeau.
Either are good choices.Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

Jasey Jay Anderson would be a great choice. He's been the top of his sport forever, and finally in his last olympics (probably his last race ever) he grabbed the gold.

I have recently changed my mind and think Charles Hamelin is most deserving of the honour. With 13 (hopefully 14) golds we have many deserving choices luckily!!

I think they will go with Bilodeau. He was the first to win a gold on home soil and will be the new poster boy for a while.
My name is Paul. And I'm a golfaholic.

Charles Hamelin has sort of been announce... double Gold will do this. Good for him!
Lots of good choices and all deserving!If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.

It has now been confirmed... Joannie Rochette will be the flag carrier.
