Wow those are amazing metals, truly successful and imaginative design. I love it. I think i finally realize the importance and potential of our Vancouver olympic games.

[@thunderbirdsigns]

very amazing and lovely. It makes my heart soar to this day. What an achievement

[@JJPasadena]

These are in my opinion the nicest looking Olympic medals that I have ever seen!

[@lexlib]

@anikinippon: the more traditional medals can be found at the summer olympics. the winter olympic medals gives room for creativity. in 1992 they have glass, franite in 1994, lacquer and color in 1998, the difference shapes resembling like a rock in 2002, the 2006 medal is supposed to be an ancient coin while they went for the undulating surfaces for the 2010 medals. winter olympics gives unique chances for artistry.

What an amazing story... we should be proud of our Canada games.... the inukshuk, the medals, the motto....everything have a beautiful story behind it.... Canada is a powerful place ... and I Hope everybody will see as much I see in those medal and in this amazing country I live in from coast to coast, from the english side and the french side I live in.

[@GamesNshiet]

[@oldkugar]

Corrine, I am so proud of you. Way to go luvey

[@reihead]

increible!!! que hermoso, is good to see that still there are wonderful things in this world

[@crazyjoeda]

I think these medals really look great, better than previous Olympics.

[@anikinippon]

@CanadaguyRudey I don't agree with the ugly comment but I agree that it's supposed to be about athleticism and Greece, not a grievance for native peoples. A unique design doesn't mean "fuck it, lets do whatever we want".

[@rivengle]

I would buy one of these for 1 million dollars over a diamond ring.

[@cgord31]

I think this year the Sedins will look better in silver or bronze

@ythb123 I'm not talking about the metal in the medals themselves, they can have a Palladium medal for all I care. The design on the medal are supposed to convey athletic virtues, a sense of classic Greece or an ode to Athens, or something. Tell you what, on the 2012 Olympic medals do you think it would be proper to put a basket of fish and chips on the medal because it's held in London?

[@cgord31]

Can't wait for February, hope the protesters don't ruin everyones fun.

[@YourLoyalDeserter]

They need to make an unoptaimium medal.

[@rivengle]

Really?! Sweet.

[@lexlib]

tell that rachel marsden who's been whining about too much first nation influence over Vancouver 2010.

[@orcanuck]

Sorry Sedins! Love you guys, but you can't go near those gold medals. Silver will look better on you anyway.

[@anikinippon]

@NORTHinuit They have nothing to do with the Olympics, they could have got a medal design better out of a 6 year old. You don't see a Samurai or some crazy shinto spirit on a Tokyo Olympic medals for a reason. It's like putting a McDonald's cheeze burger on a science award, it doesn't speak for itself, it has to be explained, that's why the artists failed with a passion.

[@guitars2112]

This video is terribly cheesy.
