But that said - this is manufactured outrage, which the IOC often does. (See condemnations of Usain Bolt for his victory celebration.) I think it was mostly because they did it on the ice surface instead of in the locker room. Marie-Phillipe Poulin's age was something of an afterthought.
She is of legal drinking age in Quebec, which is her home province. It's not like there's a big sign when you enter a new province announcing that it's drinking age is different. She may have known or not or may have forgotten...who knows, but it really struck me as reaching for something to be upset about.
