Friday, 14 January 2011
Where were you when Sidney Crosby scored the "golden goal"?
How did you celebrate Canada's gold medal victories?
How did Vancouver 2010 impact you, your family, the country?
Those are the questions CTV – Canada's Olympic network – wants answering to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Games.
CTV has launched a special anniversary website at www.2010.ctv.ca, where Canadians are encouraged to share how they watched and experienced Vancouver 2010.
Select stories, videos and photos will be shown during a 90-minute Vancouver 2010 Anniversary Show, airing nationally on CTV on February 13.
"For 17 days, we experienced the drama that touched the hearts of Canadians and united the country," said Susanne Boyce, President of creative, content and channels.
"There are so many untold, wonderful stories.
"We wanted to give Canadians a chance to be part of this celebration and tell the rest of the country what Vancouver 2010 meant to them."
