The Canada women's Olympics ice hockey team members took home the gold medal, while the United States of America women's Olympics ice hockey team members won the silver medal, and the Switzerland women's Olympics ice hockey team took the bronze medal.
Because instead of having both the Summer and Winter Olympics in the same year, every 4 years, they decided to alternate every 2 years. So the Winter Olympics were held in 1992 and then again in 1994 while the Summer Olympics were not held again until 1996.
Canada has hosted the Winter Olympics twice: in 1988 in Calgary, Alberta and in 2010 in Vancouver, British Columbia. They won 2 gold medals in 1988; 14 gold medals in 2010 for a total of 16 gold medals as Winter Olympic hosts.
The 1940 Olympics were held in two cities of Japan. The summer Olympics were held in Tokyo while the winter Olympics were held in Sapporo.
27 Summer Olympics, 3 were canceled. 20 winter Olympic games, 2 were canceled. The major difference in numbers is because the summer Olympics started in 1896, while the winter Olympics started in 1924.

The 2010 Olympics was a year in which only the Winter Olympics took place. The Summer Olympics took place in 2008 and 2012. The United States won the most overall medals in the Winter Olympics of 2010, while Canada won the most Gold medals. Marit Bjorgen from Norway was the individual with the most overall medals in the 2010 Winter Olympics.
In 1988 the Summer Olympics were held in Seoul, South Korea while the Winter Olympics were held in Calgary, Canada. 160 nations participated in the summer and 57 participated in winter.
From 1928 Amsterdam Olympics to 1956 Melbourne Olympics India won six consecutive gold medals at hockey. The two other gold medals for India came in the 1964 Tokyo Olympics and the 1980 Moscow Olympics
The Summer Olympic Games include more 'summertime' sports such as volleyball, swimming, or equestrian, while the Winter Olympic Games include more 'wintertime' sports such as skiing, ice skating, and snowboarding.
This depends of which Olympics do you mean? The winter Olympics are being held in Vancouver while there isn't a summer Olympics until 2012 which is being held in London. Hope this helps :)
there are 4 years in between the 'summer' Olympics, and then, 2 years later, the winter Olympics. e.g. the Olympics in 2008, the winter Olympics in 2010 and then the Olympics in 2012 and so-on.
