The show was for all ages. There is no way in hell that anyone over 30 would listen to Billy talent and Alexisonfire or any other of that screamo shit. Thats same reason why they didn’t put Famous, Kardinal, or Classfied, up on stage.  
I agree that The Tragically Hip, Avril Lavigne or Diana Krall would have been better choices.

Overall some things could’ve been improved, but as said earlier. The first Gold on home soil will be the true memory of these Olympics, not the opening ceremony
