Factual error: Error in geography: The figure skating competition in Montreal is implied to be taking place at the Olympic Stadium (both from exterior and interior shots). This stadium was built for the 1976 Summer Olympics - it is not a skating facility. The only ice venue of comparable size is the Bell Centre in downtown Montreal - some 20 km away.
