Vancouver council to consider a motion next Tuesday that could see the city hold a vote on bid to bring the Winter Olympics to B.C.

Vancouver council will consider a motion next Tuesday that could see the city hold a vote on whether or not to participate in the bid to bring the Winter Olympics back to this province.

Councillor Colleen Hardwick has proposed the motion, saying if a vote is approved it could be added to the ballot during municipal elections this October.

A similar vote in 2003 resulted in a nearly 64 per cent majority in favour of hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics.

A feasibility study is currently underway as an Indigenous-led partnership, including four local First Nations, the City of Vancouver, Resort Municipality of Whistler and the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic committees explores the possibility of bringing the Games back to B-C in 2030.
