The Heartbeat: Olympic Hearts exclusive edition

It has been almost two years since my first edition of The Heartbeat.  SportCafé's co-founders Etienne Morneau and Antoine Meunier are deciding to move SportCafé in a new direction which does not include a sports calendar.

My original reason for writing The Heartbeat was to know when Olympic sports competitions were being held in Canada or televised. I thought that other amateur sports fans would appreciate the information.

So here it is, my first exclusive edition of The Heartbeat:
