Canada's curling team accuses Sweden of filming violation in response to Olympic cheating allegations

A judging controversy erupts at the Winter Olympics after a French judge was accused of giving a boosted score to the home country in the ice dance final, potentially costing Team USA gold.

Canada's curling team has fired back at Sweden after the Swedes accused the Canadians of cheating at the Winter Olympics. 

After Sweden accused Canada of double-touching stones on Friday, igniting a global controversy, Canadian curler Marc Kennedy leveled allegations against the Swedes of improperly filming his delivery. 

"They have come up with a plan here at the Olympics, as far as I know, to catch teams in the act at the hog line," Kennedy told reporters, per the National Post.

"This was planned, right from the word go yesterday. From the words that were being said by their coaches and the way they were running to the officials, it was kind of evident that something was going on, and they were trying to catch us in an act.

"I know we’re not the only team that they’ve done that to," Kennedy added. "So, I think this was — I don’t know what the word is for that — but like a premeditated plan to try to catch us."

Curling Canada CEO Nolan Thiessen told reporters he thinks video was shot outside of the strict rules for Olympic filming.

"I was surprised that there was a live video on the hog line outside of OBS rules," Thiessen said. "That seems odd to me."
