One in three Canadians do not know the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games will be held in Vancouver, Canada in 2010, said a poll released on Thursday.
The poll, which was conducted by Decima Research for the federal government, revealed that in Ontario, only 60 percent of people correctly identified the location, and in Quebec 43 percent, Alberta 68 percent and British Columbia, 97 percent.
The poll came out on the same day when Vancouver mayor Sam Sullivan was in Toronto promoting the Games.
However, Sullivan said he is confident the games will be a boost for Canada and that they will bring "us together as a country."
