Canada breaks one gold record, ties another

Canada makes history with three golden performances on Saturday

With 13 golds, Canada has broken the record of gold medals won by a host country at the Winter Olympics. It has also tied with the Soviet Union’s 1976 and Norway’s 2002 totals for golds earned by a single country. Canada is poised to break this record with the men’s gold hockey match against the U.S. on Sunday.
