We know, this bet was a private bet between individuals. In this case, between Stephen Harper and Barrack Obama

Neither Stephen Harper or Barrack Obama were in charge of the event. The Olympics is owned and run by the IOC.

Irrelevant, it was a legal, private bet between individuals.
| quote: | | 4. It is not a "gift" because it exactly involves what is called gambling and gaming. What is called placing a stake on an event. In this case the PM helped faciliate the games - making them co-operator, and the one specifically taking part in the bet itself. |
You're right, it was a bet. A legal bet. Because it was a private bet between individuals.
| quote: | | 5. The PM was at the actual event, which is also an offence. |
No it isn't. He doesn't own or run Team Canada, Hockey Canada, or the Olympic games. Neither does Obama own Team USA, Hockey USA, or the Olympic games. It was a legal bet, and Stephen Harper won fair and square!
How's your job-hunting going? Assault any more store clerks or doctors lately?
