The Russian Pairs Skating Dynasty lives on in 2002.
I don't think the French feel any particular attachment to Quebec, and the Quebeckers certainly feel very little attachment to France (besides the whole language thing). I do certainly believe that Sale and Pelletier deserved the gold (Canadian as I am), but this is hardly the first time Canadian skaters got shafted at the Winter Games, so it's not terribly surprising.
