OTTAWA -- Calgary will no longer bid for the 2026 Winter Olympic Games after residents roundly rejected its proposal to host the Games in a referendum, according to AFP report on Monday.
Calgary's withdrawal now leaves only Milan and Stockholm in the running when the host city is announced in June in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Canada hosted the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver.
