Product Description
The Vancouver Games: A Spectacular Choice. Following in the Footsteps of Canada’s Expo & Olympics Success. The Winter Olympic games of 2010 will be hosted in the grand Canadian cities of Vancouver and Whistler, British Columbia, just north of the border of the United States. How will those games compare to Turin? Does Canada and its western city Vancouver have a better chance to host the greatest Olympics ever than the Italian metropolis or other past host cities? It won't be the first time for Canada to host the world and see how they compare. Montreal’s Expo ‘76 was the top rated world exposition of all time, and the 1976 Summer Olympics followed suit in the same Quebec city just nine years later. Vancouver’s Expo ‘86 was the highest ranked Special Category world expo since 1851, and Calgary’s Winter Olympics in 1988 is regarded by many as one of the best organized Olympics in history.

The Vancouver Games: A Spectacular Choice explains the reasons why Vancouver & Whistler will host the Winter Olympic games with great skill and dexterity, following in the footsteps of past events with another international success for the people of Canada. A great book for the future Vancouver Olympics volunteer, fan, visitor, or the fan of Canadian events in the past.
