Canada (and the US) come away with bragging rights

Could it be any better than this?

Canada — host country of the Vancouver Games and Our Favorite Neighbors — comes away with the highest tally of gold medals.

Also, a stunning OT win over the US hockey team.

The US, meanwhile, comes away with the highest overall tally of medals, beating the second-place Germans by a whopping seven medals.

North America scored a whopping 67 medals overall, humbling the mighty Europeans and Asians.

Here’s a warm, heartfelt tip of the hat to Canada.

Thanks for having us over for a great couple of weeks of fantastic sport.

Long after we’ve forgotten the rain, we’ll remember the fierce, passionate competition and the neighborly spirit.

Great job, Canada!
