    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    Word is the Canadian Olympic Committee has filed preliminary paperwork for the 2020 bid. They requested that the IOC keep this confidential. Reason being, Quebec. They'd be outraged and Toronto and COC doesn't want all this negative press until September when the actual letter of bidding...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    Here is some new news regarding a potential bid from a reliable source at Gamesbids.com who leaked the 2007 COC announcement about them working on a bid for 2020/24 before it actually hit the newstands. This is pretty exciting guys. Hopefully, everything gets worked out and agreed on within...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    The focus should be on obtaining a Summer Olympics. Why must we try and win another Winter Olympics in such a short time span? It makes absolutely no sense. We have Winter sporting venues for training and development out in the West, not 1 but 2 locations in Vancouver and Calgary. There's no...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    That's from an unknown source. I'd love to believe it though. He would be stupid to go with another Winter Olympics 12 years after Vancouver. QC wouldn't have much chance against a Munich bid or even an American bid for 2022

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    So the momentum looks to be shifting into Munich's side in the final stretch. If some of you are not aware, the host city for the 2018 Winter Olympics will be voted on this Wednesday. If Toronto does decide to bid for the 2020 Olympics, the decision on host city for 2018 will impact which...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    Well we are mentioned by the Associated Press as a potential candidate city. :p And the U.S.A. might bid now, I say it's still a slim shot. I don't see NYC bidding again. Chicago is out of the mix this time. Is L.A. really gonna bid for its 3rd Olympics? Regardless, I believe Toronto would...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    The more I think about it. I hope Munich, Germany wins the 2018 Winter Olympics over Pyeongchang, South Korea. With a European city winning, it would certainly void any European city bidding for 2020. And with Tokyo as the only Asian candidate it will be a pretty easy ride for a North...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    Yeah most of those comments come from our American neighbours who have also poisoned the minds of some other posters into believing Toronto has a 0% chance. It sort of makes sense though that these users would be pressed if Toronto enters again. Reasons being: 1) USA will not bid for 2020 2)If...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    There's a good chunk of posters at GamesBids that believe Toronto doesn't have a chance in hell because its too close to Vancouver and the IOC won't reward Canada, a nation of 35 million, it's 4th Olympics when Italy has only hosted only 3. Now the question I pose to us Torontonians! Is it...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    It's gonna be almost 10 years since Toronto lost its bid for the 2008 Olympics. I think that's plenty of time for the citizens to get over it, lick their wounds and want to get back into the race. :p

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    The news out of South Africa definitely changes the dynamics of this race. Tokyo says they'll bid but with Pyeongchang,South Korea as the likely winner of the 2018 Winter Olympics, Tokyo will have slim chances at winning 2020. Add to the fact they're recovering from the recent Earthquakes and...

    Toronto 2020 Olympic Bid

    South Africa just bowed out of a 2020 Olympic Bid. This makes the competition much weaker. That leaves Rome as the only strong contender. I think Toronto may want to seize this opportunity because 2020 seems like the right time to bid when taking into account the depth of the competition. I...
