It's a disaster. Norwegians view that it is their God-given right
and privilege to win all skiing events. Scale of downfall is
incredible.

Canada is almost as bad. By my reckoning, Canada's upgrade of their olympic program was a smashing success, netting the 3rd most medals. But from what i've been hearing from my Canadian contacts, no one cares because the hockey team flopped. That's the only thing that matters to them.
