It will end back in the city July 10 for the lighting of the cauldron at the end of the opening ceremony.I cannot think of a better person than Chris Hadfiled to launch this relay, said Wynne.Olympic medallists Simon Whitfield and Catriona Le May Doan, who were among the first torchbearers at Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, were also present at the announcement.We want others to feel the impact of how big it is to carry that flame, said Le May Doan.These Games are bigger than people even realize and they will really inspire the next generation.
