The XXI Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver B.C.

We are currently enjoying the 21st Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, British Columbia.  This is an event that attracts hundreds of athletes from around the world to participate and possibly capture a moment of glory when they win an event and receive a medal for their efforts.  The extent of the olympics is amazing as it has been going on for hundreds of years.

When did the first olympic competition happen and where did it occur?

Who has won the last Canadian medal at the current winter games?  What event did this person win (look for details)?

Are you watching the olympics?  What is your take on everything surrounding the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver?
