The Canadian women's hockey team will have to wait to play its first game at the Winter Olympics.

Canada's game against Finland scheduled for Thursday has been postponed because of norovirus cases affecting the Finnish team, Milano Cortina 2026 announced.
The game will now be played Feb. 12. Quarterfinals are scheduled for Feb. 13.

Finland practised with just eight skaters and two goaltenders Thursday before the postponement was announced. Finnish Ice Hockey Association spokesperson Henna Malmberg said the remaining 13 players are either infected or in quarantine.

"While all stakeholders recognise the disappointment of not playing the game as originally scheduled, this was a responsible and necessary decision that reflects the spirit of the Olympic Games and the integrity of the competition," Milano Cortina 2026 said in a statement.

Norovirus is no joke. I worry about that bug more than I worry about Covid. Norovirus is why I wipe down my grocery cart handle every time.

There was a norovirus epidemic in my town a couple years before Covid. People were shitting and puking themselves so badly, they didn't know which end to point at the toilet.

The norovirus can survive on a surface for more than two weeks. Door knobs, countertops, even on carpets! That's a fact.

It's most active in the winter months.

Wipe your cart and wash your fruits and veggies when you get them home from the store.

While we were watching the Olympics, I mentioned to my wife and daughter that the Olympic Village was one big orgy.

They were skeptical, but I've heard about that from previous Olympics.

I said, "Think about it. The most physically fit people on the planet all jammed together. You think they aren't boinking the hell out of each other?"

Two days later, my daughter read a report that the village had run out of condoms.
