Thank you Canada

One year ago this week, Canada celebrated the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. An experience that will go down in Canadian history as one of the most remarkable sporting events to unite a nation, in heart, speech and mind.

Walking down any street in Vancouver during the Olympics, comradier, pride and red and white maple leafs bleeding out our red mittens. Hearing the national anthem ring out in the streets, on the train, and in pubs. - We have arrived Canada.

The emotion. To explain the spirit of those games, there are no words. One year later, remembering how Canada celebrated, cheered and cried together, touches the heart. Those 16 days, Canada witnessed every emotion, we all sat at the edge of our seats, cheering loudly and proudly for our 206 athletes. Those games changed our country, we were given the opportunity to show our true North Strong and Free pride.

Thank you CANADA, thank you athletes.
