Take a look at RANDY STARKMAN's column

There is no doubt that there is much anxiety about future sport funding. Canada has a pattern of putting gobs of $$$ into the one or 2 years before a big competition, expecting miracles (there seldom are any), and then dropping back to an abysmal amount of funding for sport. And the results usually show this short-term thinking.
It has been like this as long as I have been in sport, and longer. Just look at international results starting in the mid-1960s.
