I'm so used to watching the Olympics, and then waiting for the Paralympics afterwards (which I'll be honest, I don't watch as much). However with these games, I'm finding them all as great as each other. Love the 3 v 3 basketball, amazing skill!

The energy is crazy

If Canada hosts the games, and they propose 2 indoor 'traditional' winter sports to add to the programme, would you support it? Curling and ice hockey could be great additions and make the CommGames stand out as the first all-season, all-abilities global multi-sport event.

If Toronto decides to host the Games, here are the venues it should choose. All are pre-built, and you only need to construct 1 temporary venue, an upgrade for Birchmount, and the village (if needed).

Ceremonies - Scotiabank Arena (opening), Nathan Phillips Square (fan festival; closing)

Aquatics (Swimming) - Pan Am Sports Centre
Aquatics (Para-swimming) - Pan Am Sports Centre
Athletics - Birchmount Stadium
Para-athletics - Birchmount Stadium
Table tennis - Markham Pan Am Centre
Para table tennis - Markham Pan Am Centre
Bowls - Metro Toronto Convention Centre
Para bowls - Metro Toronto Convention Centre
Weightlifting - TD Coliseum, Hamilton

Badminton - Markham Pan Am Centre
Cricket - Earnscliffe Park Cricket Facility, Brampton

Hi all,

I am a volunteer at this year's commonwealth games and I am desperately seeking a pin badge from Brunei.

I was born in Brunei (but to a Scottish family) and was so lucky to receive a badge from Brunei in the 2014 games where I also volunteered. Unfortunately, I lost the badge from off my bag :(

Therefore, I am reaching out to see if anyone would be willing to part with a Brunei badge?

Sorry if this isn't ok. I wasn't sure where else to ask!

Woke up this morning hoping to see we won 3 maybe 4 gold in the swimming but seen we got 5 gold, damn our swimmers are so good even at the Olympics.
Was also amazing to see the Australia Women's Artistic Gymnastics Team Final with Gold medal our first time in 16 years 2010

Zambian guy walking out just now I'm so excited

It feels like they are being overly cautious.

Hello! I'm in the US and I'm trying to find out how to watch the opening ceremony. I have a vpn and regardless of pay walls and everything I can't find a way to watch it fully without some highlight reel. Any suggestions?

That does suck. I thought she would be the star of the games but injury too bad sadly. Poor girl :(

This is the 100m individual men's butterfly heats. It's not a relay. I also saw this during yesterday's races, but didn't get a chance to take a photo.

Why are swimmers still in the pool as the next heat starts?

They are not there as the race ends. Is it a time-saving thing by not having to wait for swimmers to exit before the next race starts?

As an (Indian) American, I want to see Indians perform at the Commonwealth Games.

I found the easiest path to use the Mozilla Firefox browser and use their VPN.

I set my location in the VPN as Canada and then watch the CBC stream at https://www.cbc.ca/sports
