Opening Ceremonies for Vancouver 2010


Friday night, Vancouver, British Columbia welcomed the world, as over 2,600 winter athletes from 82 countries entered the BC Place arena, ready to compete in 86 events in 15 different sports. The opening ceremony focused on Canadian diversity and heritage, with emphasis on the many cultures of the First Nations. After the longest Torch Relay in history, the Olympic Flame has come to rest and now lights the cauldron of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.

Yeah Canada represent! (Yelling through my red mittens) I thought the opening ceremonies really did show the diversity in Canada and represented natives in a positive light.
