British Columbia at the Winter Olympics

British Columbians have been taking part in the Winter Olympic Games since the inaugural edition in 1924, however it wasn't until 1968 that the first medals were won, when Dame Nancy Greene DBC won a gold and a silver in alpine skiing events.

At the Winter Games, BC athletes have won fifteen medals - seven gold, six silver, and two bronze, with the greatest success coming from freestyle skiing, with four medals - three gold and one silver.

Medal tables here show the top three, the hosts, plus BC; asterisk indicates the host nation.
