Hockey is in the Olympics because not only is it Canada's past-time, it is also played around the world. It is a very popular sport.
Hockey was created in Canada
Canada has better statistics than the US team because Canada is the home of Hockey, and more player's that are from Canada are usually good. TEAM CANADA ALL THE WAY!
All Canadians don't play hockey. Because Canada had cold, extended winters, winter sports have become very popular, as they do in most colder climates. Similarly, many warmer climates foster warm-weather sports, like soccer and baseball. In locations near water, you'll find a lot of surfing and waterskiing. Well, as much as I would like to live up to the steriotype and say yes, we don't, and actually Hockey is not even the most played sport in Canada. Believe it or not more people play golf than Hockey. But the kids that do play hockey in Canada grow up to be world class players.
