The '''2030 [[Winter Olympics]]''', officially known as the '''XXVI Olympic Winter Games''', is an upcoming international [[multi-sport event]]. It will be organised in a city designated by the [[International Olympic Committee]] (IOC).

==Bidding process==
The new IOC bidding process was approved at the [[134th IOC Session]] on 24 June 2019 in [[Lausanne]], Switzerland. The key proposals, driven by the relevant recommendations from Olympic Agenda 2020, are:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/future-olympic-games-elections-to-be-more-flexible|title=Future Olympic Games elections to be more flexible|date=2 May 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/evolution-of-the-revolution-ioc-transforms-future-olympic-games-elections|title=Evolution of the revolution: IOC transforms future Olympic Games elections|date=26 June 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>
*Establish a permanent, ongoing dialogue to explore and create interest among cities/regions/countries and National Olympic Committees for any Olympic event
*Create two Future Host Commissions (Summer and Winter Games) to oversee interest in future Olympic events and report to the IOC executive board
*Give the IOC Session more influence by having non-executive board members form part of the Future Host Commissions.

The IOC also modified the [[Olympic Charter]] to increase its flexibility by removing the date of election from 7 years before the games, and changing the host from a single city/region/country to multiple cities, regions, or countries.

===Future Host Winter Commissions===
The full composition of the Winter Commissions, overseeing interested hosts or with potential hosts where the IOC may want to focus on, is as follows:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/ioc-members-kristin-kloster-aasen-and-octavian-morariu-lead-future-host-commissions|title=IOC Members Kristin Kloster Aasen and Octavian Morariu lead Future Host Commissions|date=3 October 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>

===Dialogue stages===
According to the Future Host Commission's rules of conduct, the new IOC bidding system is divided into 2 dialogue stages:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://stillmed.olympic.org/media/Document%20Library/OlympicOrg/News/2019/10/Future-Host-Commission-Terms-of-Reference-with-Rules-of-Conduct-ENG.pdf|title=Future Host Commissions: Terms of Reference|date=3 October 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>
*Continuous dialogue: Non-committal discussions between the IOC and interested parties (City/Region/Country/NOC interested in hosting) with regard to hosting future Olympic events.
*Targeted dialogue: Targeted discussions with one or more interested parties (called preferred host(s)), as instructed by the IOC Executive Board. This follows a recommendation by the Future Host Commission as a result of continuous dialogue.

==Bidding parties==
The three first potential submitting bidding parties were revealed by [[Octavian Morariu]], the chair of the Future Host Winter Commission, during the [[IOC Session|135th IOC Session]] at the [[SwissTech Convention Center|SwissTech Convention Centre]] in [[Lausanne]], Switzerland. He mentioned [[Sapporo]] of Japan. [[Salt Lake City]] of the United States; a joint bid from the Spanish cities of [[Barcelona]] and [[Zaragoza]], and the [[Pyrenees]] region have conducted feasibility studies. [[Vancouver]], Canada made a preliminary bid submission in February 2021.<ref>"Vancouver would be a favourite to win 2030 Winter Olympics",https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/vancouver-2030-winter-olympics-competition-bid-cities</ref><ref>"Olympics?

===Stakeholders===
Stakeholders are those cities or regions that have expressed potential interests in hosting the Games. To date, six National Olympic Committees, representing a total of four bids, have expressed their interests. They are:
* {{flagicon|Spain}}{{flagicon|Andorra}}{{flagicon|France}} [[Barcelona]]-[[Andorra]]–[[Pyrenees]], Spain, Andorra and France; Barcelona previously hosted the [[1992 Summer Olympics]] and earlier that year [[Albertville]], the proposed venue for nordic and sliding events, hosted the [[1992 Winter Olympics]]. Andorra, as the home of the [[Grandvalira Soldeu|Grandvalira resorts]], could co-host snowboarding and Freestyle skiing events. The proposal would have Barcelona host ice sports and the opening and closing ceremonies along with eight sports in other Spanish cities, France host five sports in [[Courchevel]] (nordic combined and ski jumping) with luge, skeleton, bobsleigh in [[La Plagne]], and Andorra host one in [[Soldeu]] (Alpine skiing).
* {{flagicon|Japan}} [[Sapporo]], Japan; site of the [[1972 Winter Olympics]]. Sapporo hosted the [[FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007]]. Also, one of the subsites at the [[2020 Summer Olympics]], held in [[Tokyo]], mainly [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics - Men's marathon|marathon]] events.
* {{flagicon|Canada}} [[Vancouver]]-[[Whistler, British Columbia|Whistler]], [[British Columbia]], Canada; Vancouver and Whistler hosted the [[2010 Winter Olympics]]. Vancouver hosted the [[1960 World Figure Skating Championships|1960]] and [[2001 World Figure Skating Championships|2001 ISU World Figure Skating Championships]], the [[2009 World Single Distance Speed Skating Championships|2009 ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships]], the [[IBSF World Championships 2019|2019 IBSF Bobsleigh and Skeleton World Championships]], the [[1966 Scotch Cup|1966]] and [[1987 Hexagon World Men's Curling Championship|1987]] [[World Curling Championships#Men|World Men's Curling Championships]] and the [[FIL World Luge Championships 2013|2013 FIL World Luge Championships]]. Whistler hosted the [[FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships 2001]] and the [[FIS Snowboarding World Championships 2005]]. British Columbia hosted several other major competitions in all summer and winter Olympic sports.

===Pending bid===
* {{flagicon|United States}} [[Salt Lake City]], Utah; site of the [[2002 Winter Olympics]]. In February 2020, following the announcement of Sapporo's bid, the organizing committee for the Salt Lake City bid was considered moving their intention to bid for the 2034 Games as the Summer Games are scheduled for Los Angeles in 2028.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-02-12|title=Salt Lake City mulling 2034 Winter Olympics bid|url=https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/28688033/salt-lake-city-ponders-2034-winter-olympics-bid-news-sapporo-interest-2030-games|access-date=2021-06-14|website=ESPN.com|language=en}}</ref> At the first meet in June 2021, the organizing committee considered whether it should change the bid for 2030 or 2034.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-06-11|title=Committee To Decide On 2030 Or 2034 Bid For Olympics Return To Utah|url=https://ksltv.com/464110/committee-to-decide-on-2030-or-2034-bid-for-olympics-return-to-utah/?|access-date=2021-06-12|website=KSLTV.com}}</ref> The decision for Salt Lake City on the bidding for 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics could be made after Beijing 2022 ending. President and chief executive of the Salt Lake City Bid Committee Fraser Bullock mentioned that the small window between the Los Angeles 2028 and a potential Salt Lake City 2030 Games could be a real difficult to manage and that the feasibility study for this is still ongoing.<ref>"Salt Lake City decision on 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics could be made after Beijing 2022", https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1113857/salt-lake-city-2030-governing-board</ref>

== Developments==
{{POV section|date=February 2022}}
Vancouver and Sapporo are the current front runners; however, Sapporo has been criticized for its major lack of infrastructures and the reluctance of public opinion towards a costly new candidacy of Japan after the cost and the troubles held during the organizing the [[2020 Summer Olympics]] and [[2020 Summer Paralympics]] in [[Tokyo]], and its lack of organization regarding winter sports events at the international level, and even hosting the event in 1972, the city has since managed to host few winter sporting events: the most notable being: Three editions of [[1986 Winter Asian Games|Winter Asian Games, the first in 1986]], and the same event in [[1990 Winter Asian Games|four years later in 1990]] and in [[2017 Asian Winter Games|2017]] and the [[1991 Winter Universiade]]. The city's infrastructure is too outdated by current standards. Sapporo officials put the projected costs at $2.55 billion–$2.65 billion with about $700 million coming from taxpayer money, which may be politically dangerous given Tokyo's cost overruns. Current mayor of Sapporo [[Katshuriro Akimoto]], acknowledged concerns about the costs "People have expressed hopes, too, but they are especially worried about the heavy cost burden in the future."<ref>"Sapporo Says It Can Hold Cost-Efficient 2030 Winter Games; City's mayor says public opinion survey will be held next year", https://www.sportstravelmagazine.com/sapporo-says-it-can-hold-cost-efficient-2030-winter-games/</ref> 

Contrary to what happens with Sapporo, Vancouver's candidacy fits exactly within what is proposed in the [[127th IOC Session#Olympic Agenda 2020|Agenda 2020 of the IOC]] (reuse of existing infrastructures, strong, pro-environment organization{{Citation needed|date=February 2022}}, slim budget and city suitable for winter sports and major sporting events). Vancouver currently leads the odds for getting the games, ahead of Sapporo and Barcelona-Pyrenees. "If successful, the bid will be genuinely ground breaking in a range of areas. Vancouver set the standard for a forward-thinking and socially responsible Winter Olympics in 2010, and in 2030 the city and wider region will take this template even further. The bid in 2030 benefits from existing world-class venues and stadia, and from a city that knows the value of a focus on sustainability, inclusivity, and environmentally conscious infrastructure. As the greenest ever Games, Vancouver 2030 will be a low cost, light touch template for the future of the Olympics".<ref name="timescolonist.com">"Nanaimo mayor enthusiastic about B.C. bid for 2030 Winter Olympics", https://www.timescolonist.com/sports/nanaimo-mayor-enthusiastic-about-bc-bid-for-2030-winter-olympics-4689803.</ref>

[[Bill Mallon|Dr. Bill Mallon]], the cofounder and former president of the [[International Society of Olympic Historians]], said "Vancouver bid will benefit from having existing ultra modern and ecological infrastructures, having hosted the Games so recently, which will reduce costs, and that the IOC would very well likely look favourably upon an Indigenous-led bid". "A more modest price tag might appeal to the IOC which has tried in recent times to shift toward a smaller financial and ecological footprint" with "a clear, defined legacy aligned with the city’s long-term development plans for each venues".<ref>"Dan Fumano: Host First Nations aim to change the Olympics with bid", https://theprovince.com, https://theprovince.com/news/dan-fumano-host-first-nations-aim-to-change-the-olympics-with-bid</ref>

Hosting another edition of the Games at the city, would require minimal new infrastructure, experts claim, athlete accommodation and a curling venue are the only major missing pieces: "“For any host cities, the sliding centre, ski jumps and speed-skating ovals prove the most challenging infrastructure to find. However, Vancouver has them all and they are being maintained to international standards. Similar to Olympic Village, there could be a new build with non-market housing option, a true legacy of a lot of new housing with the potential for social housing. This is also where we could see a win for many communities, including First Nations.<ref>"Hosting another Olympics would require minimal new infrastructure, experts claim", ''Vancouver Sun'', https://vancouversun.com/news/hosting-another-olympics-would-require-minimal-new-infrastructure-experts-claim</ref>

An online poll published in 2021 by Research Company showed that less than 60% of respondents were in favour of hosting the Games in Vancouver. This survey, however, was criticized for its margin of error, lack of sampling, sample size (< 800) and the fact that it was conducted entirely online without monitoring. The support evaluated for a low-cost bid with private participation of the Games in Vancouver since 2019 is evaluated between 75 and 86%, with a margin of error between 1.2 and 2.8%.<ref>"Les sondages favorables à une candidature de Vancouver", https://www.francsjeux.com/breves/les-sondages-favorables-a-une-candidature-de-vancouver</ref><ref>"As public support dips, the push for a Vancouver/Whistler 2030 Olympic bid presses on", https://biv.com/article/2021/11/public-support-dips-push-vancouverwhistler-2030-olympic-bid-presses</ref><ref name="timescolonist.com"/> Meanwhile, the joint project from Pyrenees-Barcelona in Spain has been struggling with regional infighting and will likely face a contentious referendum in 2022.<ref>"Canada explores first-ever Indigenous-led Olympic bid with First Nations eyeing a Vancouver 2030 Winter Games", Gamesbids.com, https://gamesbids.com/eng/winter-olympic-bids/future-winter-bids/canada-explores-first-ever-indigenous-led-olympic-bid-with-first-nations-eyeing-a-vancouver-2030-winter-games/</ref>

On December 10, 2021, the City of Vancouver and the Resort Municipality of [[Whistler, British Columbia|Whistler]] joined the [[Coast Salish|Four Host First Nations from Vancouver 2010]] to formally announce their joint candidacy after the signing of an historic memorandum of understanding.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/vancouver-2030-olympics-bid-exploration-first-nations-announcement|title = Potential Vancouver 2030 Olympic bid to take big step forward on Friday | Urbanized}}</ref>

The '''2030 [[Winter Olympics]]''', officially known as the '''XXVI Olympic Winter Games''', is an upcoming international [[multi-sport event]]. It will be organised in a city designated by the [[International Olympic Committee]] (IOC).

==Bidding process==
The new IOC bidding process was approved at the [[134th IOC Session]] on 24 June 2019 in [[Lausanne]], Switzerland. The key proposals, driven by the relevant recommendations from Olympic Agenda 2020, are:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/future-olympic-games-elections-to-be-more-flexible|title=Future Olympic Games elections to be more flexible|date=2 May 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/evolution-of-the-revolution-ioc-transforms-future-olympic-games-elections|title=Evolution of the revolution: IOC transforms future Olympic Games elections|date=26 June 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>
*Establish a permanent, ongoing dialogue to explore and create interest among cities/regions/countries and National Olympic Committees for any Olympic event
*Create two Future Host Commissions (Summer and Winter Games) to oversee interest in future Olympic events and report to the IOC executive board
*Give the IOC Session more influence by having non-executive board members form part of the Future Host Commissions.

The IOC also modified the [[Olympic Charter]] to increase its flexibility by removing the date of election from 7 years before the games, and changing the host from a single city/region/country to multiple cities, regions, or countries.

===Future Host Winter Commissions===
The full composition of the Winter Commissions, overseeing interested hosts or with potential hosts where the IOC may want to focus on, is as follows:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.olympic.org/news/ioc-members-kristin-kloster-aasen-and-octavian-morariu-lead-future-host-commissions|title=IOC Members Kristin Kloster Aasen and Octavian Morariu lead Future Host Commissions|date=3 October 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>

===Dialogue stages===
According to the Future Host Commission's rules of conduct, the new IOC bidding system is divided into 2 dialogue stages:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://stillmed.olympic.org/media/Document%20Library/OlympicOrg/News/2019/10/Future-Host-Commission-Terms-of-Reference-with-Rules-of-Conduct-ENG.pdf|title=Future Host Commissions: Terms of Reference|date=3 October 2019|work=International Olympic Committee}}</ref>
*Continuous dialogue: Non-committal discussions between the IOC and interested parties (City/Region/Country/NOC interested in hosting) with regard to hosting future Olympic events.
*Targeted dialogue: Targeted discussions with one or more interested parties (called preferred host(s)), as instructed by the IOC Executive Board. This follows a recommendation by the Future Host Commission as a result of continuous dialogue.

==Bidding parties==
The three first potential submitting bidding parties were revealed by [[Octavian Morariu]], the chair of the Future Host Winter Commission, during the [[IOC Session|135th IOC Session]] at the [[SwissTech Convention Center|SwissTech Convention Centre]] in [[Lausanne]], Switzerland. He mentioned [[Sapporo]] of Japan. [[Salt Lake City]] of the United States; a joint bid from the Spanish cities of [[Barcelona]] and [[Zaragoza]], and the [[Pyrenees]] region have conducted feasibility studies. [[Vancouver]], Canada made a preliminary bid submission in February 2021.<ref>"Vancouver would be a favourite to win 2030 Winter Olympics",https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/vancouver-2030-winter-olympics-competition-bid-cities</ref><ref>"Olympics?

===Stakeholders===
Stakeholders are those cities or regions that have expressed potential interests in hosting the Games. To date, six National Olympic Committees, representing a total of four bids, have expressed their interests. They are:
* {{flagicon|Spain}}{{flagicon|Andorra}}{{flagicon|France}} [[Barcelona]]-[[Andorra]]–[[Pyrenees]], Spain, Andorra and France; Barcelona previously hosted the [[1992 Summer Olympics]] and earlier that year [[Albertville]], the proposed venue for nordic and sliding events, hosted the [[1992 Winter Olympics]]. Andorra, as the home of the [[Grandvalira Soldeu|Grandvalira resorts]], could co-host snowboarding and Freestyle skiing events. The proposal would have Barcelona host ice sports and the opening and closing ceremonies along with eight sports in other Spanish cities, France host five sports in [[Courchevel]] (nordic combined and ski jumping) with luge, skeleton, bobsleigh in [[La Plagne]], and Andorra host one in [[Soldeu]] (Alpine skiing).
* {{flagicon|Japan}} [[Sapporo]], Japan; site of the [[1972 Winter Olympics]]. Sapporo hosted the [[FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007]]. Also, one of the subsites at the [[2020 Summer Olympics]], held in [[Tokyo]], mainly [[Athletics at the 2020 Summer Olympics - Men's marathon|marathon]] events.
* {{flagicon|Canada}} [[Vancouver]]-[[Whistler, British Columbia|Whistler]], [[British Columbia]], Canada; Vancouver and Whistler hosted the [[2010 Winter Olympics]]. Vancouver hosted the [[1960 World Figure Skating Championships|1960]] and [[2001 World Figure Skating Championships|2001 ISU World Figure Skating Championships]], the [[2009 World Single Distance Speed Skating Championships|2009 ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships]], the [[IBSF World Championships 2019|2019 IBSF Bobsleigh and Skeleton World Championships]], the [[1966 Scotch Cup|1966]] and [[1987 Hexagon World Men's Curling Championship|1987]] [[World Curling Championships#Men|World Men's Curling Championships]] and the [[FIL World Luge Championships 2013|2013 FIL World Luge Championships]]. Whistler hosted the [[FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships 2001]] and the [[FIS Snowboarding World Championships 2005]]. British Columbia hosted several other major competitions in all summer and winter Olympic sports.

===Pending bid===
* {{flagicon|United States}} [[Salt Lake City]], Utah; site of the [[2002 Winter Olympics]]. In February 2020, following the announcement of Sapporo's bid, the organizing committee for the Salt Lake City bid was considered moving their intention to bid for the 2034 Games as the Summer Games are scheduled for Los Angeles in 2028.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-02-12|title=Salt Lake City mulling 2034 Winter Olympics bid|url=https://www.espn.com/olympics/story/_/id/28688033/salt-lake-city-ponders-2034-winter-olympics-bid-news-sapporo-interest-2030-games|access-date=2021-06-14|website=ESPN.com|language=en}}</ref> At the first meet in June 2021, the organizing committee considered whether it should change the bid for 2030 or 2034.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2021-06-11|title=Committee To Decide On 2030 Or 2034 Bid For Olympics Return To Utah|url=https://ksltv.com/464110/committee-to-decide-on-2030-or-2034-bid-for-olympics-return-to-utah/?|access-date=2021-06-12|website=KSLTV.com}}</ref> The decision for Salt Lake City on the bidding for 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics could be made after Beijing 2022 ending. President and chief executive of the Salt Lake City Bid Committee Fraser Bullock mentioned that the small window between the Los Angeles 2028 and a potential Salt Lake City 2030 Games could be a real difficult to manage and that the feasibility study for this is still ongoing.<ref>"Salt Lake City decision on 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics could be made after Beijing 2022", https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1113857/salt-lake-city-2030-governing-board</ref>

== Developments==
{{POV section|date=February 2022}}
Vancouver and Sapporo are the current front runners; however, Sapporo has been criticized for its major lack of infrastructures and the reluctance of public opinion towards a costly new candidacy of Japan after the cost and the troubles held during the organizing the [[2020 Summer Olympics]] and [[2020 Summer Paralympics]] in [[Tokyo]], and its lack of organization regarding winter sports events at the international level, and even hosting the event in 1972, the city has since managed to host few winter sporting events: the most notable being: Three editions of [[1986 Winter Asian Games|Winter Asian Games, the first in 1986]], and the same event in [[1990 Winter Asian Games|four years later in 1990]] and in [[2017 Asian Winter Games|2017]] and the [[1991 Winter Universiade]]. The city's infrastructure is too outdated by current standards. Sapporo officials put the projected costs at $2.55 billion–$2.65 billion with about $700 million coming from taxpayer money, which may be politically dangerous given Tokyo's cost overruns. Current mayor of Sapporo [[Katshuriro Akimoto]], acknowledged concerns about the costs "People have expressed hopes, too, but they are especially worried about the heavy cost burden in the future."<ref>"Sapporo Says It Can Hold Cost-Efficient 2030 Winter Games; City's mayor says public opinion survey will be held next year", https://www.sportstravelmagazine.com/sapporo-says-it-can-hold-cost-efficient-2030-winter-games/</ref> 

Contrary to what happens with Sapporo, Vancouver's candidacy fits exactly within what is proposed in the [[127th IOC Session#Olympic Agenda 2020|Agenda 2020 of the IOC]] (reuse of existing infrastructures, strong, pro-environment organization{{Citation needed|date=February 2022}}, slim budget and city suitable for winter sports and major sporting events). Vancouver currently leads the odds for getting the games, ahead of Sapporo and Barcelona-Pyrenees. "If successful, the bid will be genuinely ground breaking in a range of areas. Vancouver set the standard for a forward-thinking and socially responsible Winter Olympics in 2010, and in 2030 the city and wider region will take this template even further. The bid in 2030 benefits from existing world-class venues and stadia, and from a city that knows the value of a focus on sustainability, inclusivity, and environmentally conscious infrastructure. As the greenest ever Games, Vancouver 2030 will be a low cost, light touch template for the future of the Olympics".<ref name="timescolonist.com">"Nanaimo mayor enthusiastic about B.C. bid for 2030 Winter Olympics", https://www.timescolonist.com/sports/nanaimo-mayor-enthusiastic-about-bc-bid-for-2030-winter-olympics-4689803.</ref>

[[Bill Mallon|Dr. Bill Mallon]], the cofounder and former president of the [[International Society of Olympic Historians]], said "Vancouver bid will benefit from having existing ultra modern and ecological infrastructures, having hosted the Games so recently, which will reduce costs, and that the IOC would very well likely look favourably upon an Indigenous-led bid". "A more modest price tag might appeal to the IOC which has tried in recent times to shift toward a smaller financial and ecological footprint" with "a clear, defined legacy aligned with the city’s long-term development plans for each venues".<ref>"Dan Fumano: Host First Nations aim to change the Olympics with bid", https://theprovince.com, https://theprovince.com/news/dan-fumano-host-first-nations-aim-to-change-the-olympics-with-bid</ref>

Hosting another edition of the Games at the city, would require minimal new infrastructure, experts claim, athlete accommodation and a curling venue are the only major missing pieces: "“For any host cities, the sliding centre, ski jumps and speed-skating ovals prove the most challenging infrastructure to find. However, Vancouver has them all and they are being maintained to international standards. Similar to Olympic Village, there could be a new build with non-market housing option, a true legacy of a lot of new housing with the potential for social housing. This is also where we could see a win for many communities, including First Nations.<ref>"Hosting another Olympics would require minimal new infrastructure, experts claim", ''Vancouver Sun'', https://vancouversun.com/news/hosting-another-olympics-would-require-minimal-new-infrastructure-experts-claim</ref>

An online poll published in 2021 by Research Company showed that less than 60% of respondents were in favour of hosting the Games in Vancouver. This survey, however, was criticized for its margin of error, lack of sampling, sample size (< 800) and the fact that it was conducted entirely online without monitoring. The support evaluated for a low-cost bid with private participation of the Games in Vancouver since 2019 is evaluated between 75 and 86%, with a margin of error between 1.2 and 2.8%.<ref>"Les sondages favorables à une candidature de Vancouver", https://www.francsjeux.com/breves/les-sondages-favorables-a-une-candidature-de-vancouver</ref><ref>"As public support dips, the push for a Vancouver/Whistler 2030 Olympic bid presses on", https://biv.com/article/2021/11/public-support-dips-push-vancouverwhistler-2030-olympic-bid-presses</ref><ref name="timescolonist.com"/> Meanwhile, the joint project from Pyrenees-Barcelona in Spain has been struggling with regional infighting and will likely face a contentious referendum in 2022.<ref>"Canada explores first-ever Indigenous-led Olympic bid with First Nations eyeing a Vancouver 2030 Winter Games", Gamesbids.com, https://gamesbids.com/eng/winter-olympic-bids/future-winter-bids/canada-explores-first-ever-indigenous-led-olympic-bid-with-first-nations-eyeing-a-vancouver-2030-winter-games/</ref>

On December 10, 2021, the City of Vancouver and the Resort Municipality of [[Whistler, British Columbia|Whistler]] joined the [[Coast Salish|Four Host First Nations from Vancouver 2010]] to formally announce their joint candidacy after the signing of an historic memorandum of understanding.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/vancouver-2030-olympics-bid-exploration-first-nations-announcement|title = Potential Vancouver 2030 Olympic bid to take big step forward on Friday | Urbanized}}</ref>
