Part of it didn't work, but I think they handled it very well. And they made light of it by "fixing" the torch in the Closing Ceremony which I thought was a great idea.

For the first time, Canada won first overall in gold medal wins became the first host nation since Norway in 1952 to lead the gold medal count. Canada also broke the record for the most gold medals won with 14 medals. The previous record was 13, set by the former Soviet Union in 1976 and Norway in 2002. So I guess it turned out pretty well for Canada and the BC mayors and municipal council members :) Well the 2010 Olympic Winter Games have come and gone, bringing glory to Canada.

An Olympic sized-dose of gentrification would only serve to speed up Vancouver's transformation from a livable yet expensive city into a glitzy hotel for international capital.
