Came back here to reflect on 2024 now. Canada winning 9 Gold medals! Winning 27 medals in total in Paris. Canadian Men Soccer getting all the way to the Semis at COPA! My father talks about those lean years. Where Canada was just happy to be there. How times have changed! (Updated to 2024)
It's now 2022. I was there on the streets of Vancouver when we beat the US. THRILLING. The whole 2010 Vancouver Olympics were a never to be forgotten treasure! Like others have said, still brings chills and tears to the eyes. Those were the days!!
Never been prouder to be Canadian. I was lucky to go to some of the events and random outbreaks of O'Canada on the skytrain and in downtown were magic moments. I believe we really set the bar for host countries going forward.
I was born in canada lived there for 3 years until my father's job took us all the way to north carolina. I've lived here now for 18 years going back HOME to Canada twice a year. I'm now a dual citizen but when I'm asked what my nationality is with out hesitation I say I'm Canadian and so proud of that fact.
Still awesome and it still is to this very day! I'm from Vancouver and I had the time of my life watching majority of these events on TV mentioned after school. I was 12 years old when this happened so it was a huge deal and once in a lifetime event for sure!
I'm not Canadian, I'm from Italy. Last month I went to Nice to watch Ice Skating Words Finals. For the first time I had the joy to see live Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir skating and winning their second Gold Medal. It was a true emotion: they are two fantastic skaters but first of all they have some kind of magic that nobody can teach you and nobody can learn.You can have it or not. They have.
Its August 2020 and I still watch this. This was the most memorable Olympics Ever!! I'm so proud to be Canadian. Whenever I feel down I watch this!! I cry and get goosebumps everytime I watch this GO CANADA GO!!!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I remember being there for a lot of these events, I remember every Canadian crying and the pure joy going through us every time we won gold, this was definitely a Olympics to remember
Best olympic games ever, we proved that our athletes are some of the best in the world...and whats more, every Canadian came together to cheer on our athletes, especially during the last hockey game...there will never be as special an olympic games as the Vancouver ones. So proud to be Canadian!!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Mathieu Giroux (gold medallist, men's team pursuit) last week and he is just the nicest person! What an incredibly proud and memorable 2 weeks it was for Canada!
I come back to this often. I was only 5 at the time but I can remember these Olympics very well. This country was so excited and united during those games. I just wish we could go back to 2010 to experience those games again.
What total joy and pride was felt by all Canadians during the 2010 Winter Olympics in beautiful Vancouver. This brings back so many wonderful, happy moments. Thank you!
Been proud to call this country my own for all 19 years of my life. As a 6 year old, it was all a blur at the time. But looking back now, watching replays, I can truly appreciate how special this year was.
Years later and i still get everytime i see bilodeau,mior n virtue,crosby and all the canadian athletes win. Truly 2010 olympics were the best brought families and all canadians united!!!!!
Best Olympics ever. All Canadians came together as one to support our fantastic athletes, and our athletes did our country proud...can you say 14 gold? Proud to be Canadian!!!!! And always will be! :)
This video got the tears flowing for me. We may not have done as well in this year's olympics, but I'm sure as hell still proud of how AWESOME our athletes did in our home land!
I was 20 years old when my city (Vancouver) hosted the winter games. I basically lived on Granville street during these magical two weeks. I will never forgot the best party of my life
Objection! This video gave me chills and I am not Canadian. But seriously, that was the best Olympic Games in my lifetime thus far. So how can it not give me chills?
loved volunteering for these game and really makes me feel happy to see parts of the 2010 games again not just asit is in Canada and not just because it is in Vancouver where I live but it is knowing I was part of the large volunteer group that helped make these successful. and also meting so many new peopole oth volunteers, atheletes, visitors, and other people too

The history leading to this Olympic is also critical to understanding its relevance. In the history of the Olympics there had been only one country that had hosted an had failed to win a gold. That was Canada and we did it twice; 1976 Montreal and 1988 Calgary. We never had much to cheer about in any Olympic save perhaps the heavily boycotted 1984 Los Angeles Games. It was quite embarrassing. The “Own the Podium” program changed all that with improved and better directed funding. The addition of sports where we could excel and the addition of NHL players made the lead up to Vancouver 2010 very promising. The result exceeded expectations in all aspects. The organization, Yanofsky’s inspiring tune, the celebratory Olympic village, the record setting number of Golds capped off with the most coveted prize of double hockey gold medals. Such an incredible event.
I love Canada and am proud to be here. When I watched this video, I was almost put to tears and it gave me the biggest chills. Smiles were spread across Canada, cheers heard across the world from one incredible nation when these events happened. And that first gold medal from the last goal was something that for anybody who witnessed this will always be in our Canadian hearts.
I can’t tell you the reason why. Each and every time I watch this video, the moment when the Men’s Pursuit Speed Skate team comes out of the corner in perfect synchronized fashion, I immediately start crying. They explode down the home stretch, all three in a straight line, all three crossing at basically the same time. Gives me chills.
I just have to say....in the past few days I've watched this video so many times....it's gotta be one of the best videos on youtube. Makes me proud to be Canadian!
Indeed. When my father died of a heart attack, I couldn't even function. I'm not sure how Joannie found it in herself to carry on, let alone win an Olympic medal.
These 16 days in 2010 will rank with Vimy Ridge, Juno Beach, the Summit Series, and the patriation of the Constitution, as some of the defining moments in Canadian history. Simply amazing.
Definitely!! These Olympics were truly magical, and every Canadian, from every cultural background, came together as one during these games. :) GO CANADA GO!
It's been almost 3 years since these games, and after watching videos like this (and reaction videos to Crosby's golden goal), I have to try to stop myself from crying. I love Canada.
It's nice to see that Canada can win gold and still have sympathy for their opponents. For example, When Alex Biledeau won his gold, he went to pat his opponents back before celebrating. Those little things make me proud to be canadian!
I watched 10 out of the 14 moments of history. This patriotism is AWESOME! Man, Canada, we've been missing out! We gotta make up for it at every chance :P
The one that always stuck out for me was Christine Nesbitt. Both at the time and now you could see in her eyes that she didn't think she gave her best performance and was surprised to have won. It was more relief than elation as she must have felt enormous pressure. I'm not sure she enjoyed the moment as much as she should have.
Bro, I cried.
***** group hug?
ME TOO ;-;
Still cryin over here 😢
Watched this in 2021, and I cried.
Bro me too
it's 2019 now, i can still feel the goosebumps every time i watch it
2020 for me man
I know its 2020 but, in 2023 the Olympics is in Canada, Prince Edward Island! I can't wait
here in 2021, summer olympics almost over, i feel so patriotic rn
checking in as these 2022 games come to a close, going to be tough to ever beat that feeling canada brought to the nation in 2010
@@gamercarmen3957 It'll be hosted in Berlin, Germany. PEI is hosting the 2023 Canada Winter Games.
Came back here to reflect on 2024 now.
Canada winning 9 Gold medals! Winning 27 medals in total in Paris.
Canadian Men Soccer getting all the way to the Semis at COPA!
My father talks about those lean years. Where Canada was just happy to be there. How times have changed!
(Updated to 2024)
Always blows my mind to think we went from a country who has never won a gold on home soil to winning the most gold medals at a Winter Olympics.
Criiied. I live in BC. It was nutters watching that game live.
Laika Lamarr , I was even more sad. I LIVE IN VANCOUVER and I didn't get to watch the olympics
I was two, so I didn't watch them, but every time I see a replay I get emotional.
It's now 2022. I was there on the streets of Vancouver when we beat the US. THRILLING. The whole 2010 Vancouver Olympics were a never to be forgotten treasure! Like others have said, still brings chills and tears to the eyes. Those were the days!!
WHY AM I CRYNG IT'S BEEN ALMOST 11 YEARS
I'm going to cry, oh gods... I've never been more proud to be Canadian.
It's just sports...personal achievement/perserverence by athletes/coaches notwithstanding
Ten years later and it feels like this happened yesterday. Those Games were just so magical.
love my country. go canada!!!
chills that's all i get while watching this video, makes you wish it was still 2010
This was the greatest winter Olympic Games in history and nobody will ever convince me otherwise.
Alex B's win was the most beautiful. His brothers smile brought happy tears to me.
Never been prouder to be Canadian. I was lucky to go to some of the events and random outbreaks of O'Canada on the skytrain and in downtown were magic moments. I believe we really set the bar for host countries going forward.
It was an electric atmosphere in that city at that time
I was born in canada lived there for 3 years until my father's job took us all the way to north carolina. I've lived here now for 18 years going back HOME to Canada twice a year. I'm now a dual citizen but when I'm asked what my nationality is with out hesitation I say I'm Canadian and so proud of that fact.
The way Crosby shouted "IGGY!" is forever lasered into my brain.
Still awesome and it still is to this very day! I'm from Vancouver and I had the time of my life watching majority of these events on TV mentioned after school. I was 12 years old when this happened so it was a huge deal and once in a lifetime event for sure!

Ooo man. That was beautiful. ❤️🇨🇦
Got tears in my eyes. It was a pretty magical Olympics. Felt sooo good to win that hockey game too.
I love hearing the excitement in the commentators' voices and just the Vancouver 2010 games overall. I love being Canadian!!
Best olympic games ever, we proved that our athletes are some of the best in the world...and whats more, every Canadian came together to cheer on our athletes, especially during the last hockey game...there will never be as special an olympic games as the Vancouver ones.

I live in vancouver and the pride I felt during the olympics will never be forgotten. PROUD TO BE CANADIAN
That was one hell of an Olympics.
What total joy and pride was felt by all Canadians during the 2010 Winter Olympics in beautiful Vancouver. This brings back so many wonderful, happy moments. Thank you!
What a great medley of golds! Watching this makes me feel even more proud to be Canadian, thank you for this spectacular video!
bruhhh, this gave me chills. sid scoring that game winning gold was the greatest feeling in sports ever
Been proud to call this country my own for all 19 years of my life. As a 6 year old, it was all a blur at the time. But looking back now, watching replays, I can truly appreciate how special this year was.
I am so proud to be Canadian

I wonder if Kleenex’s sales went up in Canada at that time from all of the tears of joy we shed.
I smile every time I look at my Vancouver 2010 Olympic mittens. Such a great time to be Canadian.
My favourite olympics by far!! 🍁
this is nearly two years ago, and this made me cry. I am so proud to be Canadian.
Even better is the fact that we did this all on our own home soil!
Best Olympics ever. All Canadians came together as one to support our fantastic athletes, and our athletes did our country proud...can you say 14 gold?
Proud to be Canadian!!!!! And always will be! :)
We delivered on such an EPIC SCALE. Canada, you're awesome.
This video got the tears flowing for me. We may not have done as well in this year's olympics, but I'm sure as hell still proud of how AWESOME our athletes did in our home land!
Wow! That was an awesome trip down memory lane! I'll never forget those 2 weeks. Well Done
I remember how sunny and warm those two weeks were 🌞
It’s 2021, I still have tears watching this
I was 20 years old when my city (Vancouver) hosted the winter games. I basically lived on Granville street during these magical two weeks. I will never forgot the best party of my life
Man that crosby goal will never get old... biggest goal in Canadian History.

that last one was insane. I remember my whole family jumped up and cheered
I love Canada and am proud to be here. When I watched this video, I was almost put to tears and it gave me the biggest chills. Smiles were spread across Canada, cheers heard across the world from one incredible nation when these events happened.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee

best olympics ever. proud canadian
Pure magic ten years ago! Go Canada onward to Tokyo Olympics 2020!
I just have to say....in the past few days I've watched this video so many times....it's gotta be one of the best videos on youtube.
Makes me proud to be Canadian!
almost 4 years later and i still get chills :) cant wait for sochi
Indeed. When my father died of a heart attack, I couldn't even function. I'm not sure how Joannie found it in herself to carry on, let alone win an Olympic medal.
These 16 days in 2010 will rank with Vimy Ridge, Juno Beach, the Summit Series, and the patriation of the Constitution, as some of the defining moments in Canadian history.
Simply amazing.
Thank you sooooo much for making this! Perfect video!
Definitely!! These Olympics were truly magical, and every Canadian, from every cultural background, came together as one during these games. :) GO CANADA GO!
Love how they have the french lyrics as well as the english
Omg I wish I saw this during the olympics! So awesome though! Thanks for making this video and sharing it :D
It's been almost 3 years since these games, and after watching videos like this (and reaction videos to Crosby's golden goal), I have to try to stop myself from crying. I love Canada.
Never gets old.
It's nice to see that Canada can win gold and still have sympathy for their opponents. For example, When Alex Biledeau won his gold, he went to pat his opponents back before celebrating.
Those little things make me proud to be canadian!
It doesn't matter if we win more gold in London than in Vancouver, it will allways be more special,in Vancouver cause it was our homeland :)
One of the best events ever organized by Canada!
This pandemic has made me even more proud to be a Canadian. Wishing I could flash back to 2010 right now though. What a time it was to be alive.
Still get goosebumps 2 years later..
I watched 10 out of the 14 moments of history.
This patriotism is AWESOME! Man, Canada, we've been missing out! We gotta make up for it at every chance :P
Fantastic video, well done
The one that always stuck out for me was Christine Nesbitt. Both at the time and now you could see in her eyes that she didn't think she gave her best performance and was surprised to have won. It was more relief than elation as she must have felt enormous pressure. I'm not sure she enjoyed the moment as much as she should have.
For me, the Best olympic winter Games
Canada set the world record for the most gold medals in a winter Olympics. I hope we can do it again!!! :D
What better place for Canada to show our prime than at the Vancouver winter Olympics
I am getting chills and am also smiling like an idiot even 10 years later, well done Canada!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
amazing... love this video, love being a Canadian
This makes me very proud to be Canadian
that was absolutely amazing and inspirational ... Love Live Best Country in the World
Love this song.
Still watching.
I'm so proud
