Henderson has scored for Canada!




Hello delegates!

With the hockey portion of the Winter Olympics just underway, I’d like to introduce you all to one of the defining moments of Canadian history - Paul Henderson’s game-winning goal in the deciding game of the 1972 Summit Series against the USSR.




Although rarely mentioned in the US, Henderson’s goal(and the picture above especially) is etched in Canadian lore as unquestionably the greatest moment in Canadian history, although Crosby’s Golden Goal in the 2010 Olympics is undoubtedly more ingrained in our generation. 

Even though the NHL embarrassingly isn't going to the Olympics this year, Canadians will still rally behind our time like always, including this somewhat isolated Canadian in California!

Fun Fact

New ICO by Venezuela?

Hi delegates! We're less than a week away from BMUN and we're so excited to meet all of you soon! This article came out in the Washington Post a few days ago regarding Venezuela's attempt at fighting its inflation by launching its own cryptocurrency (what a great amalgamation of both our case studies!) So far, Venezuela has been able to raise almost $1 billion but what are your opinions on this "Petro" coin? Article: " Venezuela launches the ‘petro,’ its cryptocurrency" by Rachelle Krygier See y'all soon! Sherry
