Happy Birthday, Gordon Cook! To a sailor so talented he had to take his adventure global—not just once but twice—in Beijing 2008 and London 2012. You've set sails high enough that the rest of Canada is still trying to catch up! Your skills in the fiercely competitive 49er class have made us all proud, and we remember with joy how you blazed trails as Canada's first repeat Olympic competitor in this thrilling sailing category.May your birthday be breezier than an afternoon on open waters—and less tricky than maneuvering a 49er through choppy waves at full tilt. Keep navigating life's courses skillfully; after two Olympics, any challenge ahead should feel like smooth sailing!
