Aya Reiko:
Due to the ongoing SARS-Cov-2 / Covid-19 pandemic, the Tokyo 2020 Olympics has been officially postponed until 2021. sauce: https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/28946033/tokyo-olympics-officially-postponed-2021 This happened after Canada and later Australia officially announced they will not send athletes to the games while the pandemic was ongoing, with more likely to have followed suit. |

This is obviously very good. Earlier, the olympics commitee said they were against post-poning the vent until later. I'm glad that, my country, Canada is winning by giving the exemple. |
T-A-C:
When was the last time we had an Olympics with teams pulling out? I know Russia was supposedly suspended due to doping charges, but a team actually pulling out of their own volition... has that happened since 80/84? |
BT:
It makes sense because a lot of the athletes couldn't train properly before the event and they wouldn't be at their best. |
