The 2010 Winter Games are now over.
Canada received a total of 26 medals during these games which is the best showing it has had at any Olympic games. 14 of these medals are gold medals which is more gold medals than any other country has won at any other Winter Olympic games! These games have raised Canadian patriotism to a very high level; the World has even noticed the change. I believe that Canadian’s have always been patriotic but simply do not show it publicly; Canadians are too polite to boast. The question now is… is this new enthusiasm going to stay or is it going to fade away once the Olympic success becomes only a memory.
