Kind of goes with what a couple of you have been throwing out there.
Not that I don't believe that some have mused about a 2022 bid, but I would have to think that the chances of winning another Olympics in Canada a mere 12 years after Vancouver hosted would be next to none. Especially with Toronto wanting to host a summer Olympics.

People might bring up that Montreal and Calgary were separated by 12 years (and also Atlanta and Salt Lake City by 6 years), but this is a different era where cities in Asia, Africa, Middle East and South America are in real contention for the Games and the IOC has shown a strong desire to spread it around a lot more.
