Text inside the box:

The designs featured on the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games participation medal were inspired by Canada's rich natural and cultural diversity. The Host Region's unique Sea to Sky landscape combines with the country's beautiful patterns and textures - representing the balance and connection between our land and our people. The Vancouver 2010 motto speaks to the spirit and achievements of all its participants, of those who put their heart into the XXI Olympic Winter Games.

 

Les éléments artistiques de la médaille de participation des Jeux olympiques d'hiver de 2010 à Vancouver sont inspirés de la grande diversité naturelle et culturelle du Canada. Le paysage distinct de la région hôte Sea to Sky se mêle aux magnifiques textures et panoramas du pays afin de représenter l'équilibre et le lien qui existent entre notre terre et ses gens. Les mots-symboles de Vancouver 2010 décrivent bien l'esprit et les réalisations de tous les participants, de ceux qui travaillent de tout cœur à la présentation des XXIles Jeux olympiques d'hiver.
