Canada has won another gold medal, placing first tonight in men's curling.

Canada now has won 13 gold medals at the Vancouver Olympics, compared to 10 for Germany and nine for the United States.

Only two other countries have ever won 13 gold medals at the Olympic Winter Games: the Soviet Union in 1976 and Norway in 2002.

In addition, our 13 gold medals set a new record for a host nation.

We could do even better tomorrow if Team Canada takes gold in men's ice hockey.
