2006 Paralympic Winter Games
The IX Paralympic Winter Games brought together more
than 1,000 athletes from 40 nations. With 13 medals,
(five golds, three silvers and five bronzes), this was
our best ever performance at a Paralympic Winter Games.
2006 Olympic Winter Games
More than 2,500 athletes from 87 different nations
competed at the Torino 2006 Olympic Winter Games.
British Columbia was well-represented, with more than 60 athletes, coaches and technical support members as part
of Team Canada. Canada sent its largest ever delegation
and entered in the highest number of events in its
Olympic Winter Games history.
With 24 medals, Canada had its best winter games
showing ever – which will inspire even greater success
when British Columbia hosts the 2010 Winter Olympic and
Paralympic Games.
2006 Melbourne Commonwealth Games
The 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Australia
brought together more than 4,500 athletes from 71 nations. A total of 102 athletes from
British Columbia (born,
residing or training) participated, making up 40 percent
of the Canadian team.
