Canada is Tied for Third in London 2012 Bronzes
We're number three!

Canada is tied for third in the London 2012 bronze medal count. 

Yes, it’s true. Currently ranked 32nd amongst participating countries, Canada shares this coveted podium spot with Russia, China and France, who each have four bronze medals. In the lead, Japan has eight bronze medals, while the U.S. has six.

So, there you have it. Our national bragging rights: Canada is tied for being the third-winningest country at winning the third-place Olympic medal at the 2012 London Games. We’re number three!
