Hi, I chaired a conference for almost 2,000 people at the United Nations this last Septembert (2007) on climate change. If the polar ice cap does melt in 50 years, will this be the last time an Olympic Games could have the flame brought over the North Pole? And what effect will climate change have on holding future Olympic Games in countries where ice and snow are part of life? What is the fate of future Winter Games? Richard Jordan

It will then travel from Greece, over the North Pole to Canada's high Arctic and on to the West Coast and Vancouver. The Torch will be carried by thousands of Canadians of all ages and cultural backgrounds: on foot, dog sled, snowmobile, horse, plane and virtually every means of transport known to the people of this northern land.
