I believe that the very message of me going up to accept the flag is a powerful statement about our city.
It's so difficult. If you could host the Olympics every time in the same city, then you'd get good at it. But you only ever have one chance, and there's no time to learn. Your first time is your only time.
The worst case scenario . . . the flag blows in my face and I fall off the edge of the stage.
To know that this Olympic flag will be flying over Vancouver, over city hall, is truly, truly wonderful.
