how many medals has canada won in the 2018 olympics
Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics Instead of setting a specific medal count as a target, the Canadian Olympic Committee aimed "to contend for No. 1" in the medal count.[7] Private data analytics company Gracenote projected that the Canadian team would win 28 medals.[8] Canada finished with 11 gold medals and 29 overall (ranking 3rd in both categories). This was the most successful Canadian performance in terms of overall medals, surpassing the 26 won at the 2010 Winter Olympics.[9]
Ice hockey at the Olympic Games Team USA beat Canada at the 2018 games in Pyeongchang in a shootout to win their first gold medal in 20 years.
Winter Olympic Games Norway led the total medal standings with 39, the highest number of medals by a nation in any Winter Olympics, followed by Germany's 31 and Canada's 29. Host nation South Korea won seventeen medals, their highest medal haul at a Winter Olympics.
Canada at the 2014 Winter Olympics Canada originally finished these Olympics with 10 gold medals and 25 overall (ranking 2nd and 3rd respectively). This is the second most successful Canadian performance ever, exceeded only by the achievements at the home Olympics in Vancouver in 2010. With the belated luge medal awarded in 2017 after a Russian doping disqualification[6] , Canada briefly tied its Vancouver performance in total medal count. However, the IOC decision was overturned on appeal,[7] bumping the Canadian team back to fourth and the total medal count back to 2nd and 3rd.
