At this current Olympics, Mexico currently has one gold medal, which was earned by the Mexican football team. At the 2008 Olympics, Mexico earned two gold medals, both in the sport of taekwondo. In all of the Olympics, winter or summer, Mexico has earned twelve gold medals.
I think Vancouver is a better host city because Vancouver has really earned the chance to host the Winter Olympics. Canada has hosted the Olympic Games three times including the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. Now Canada has the chance to show the rest of the world what their made of and they really showed them over that 17 day period. With 14 Golds, 7 Silvers, and 5 Bronze, Canada broke two world records. 1: for Most Golds in their home country (Canada) 2: for Most Golds won at the Winter Olympics Hope you enjoyed my answer!!

The Winter Olympics has been hosted on three continents by eleven different countries. The United States has hosted the Games four times (1932, 1960, 1980, 2002); France has been the host three times (1924, 1968, 1992);Austria (1964, 1976), Canada (1988, 2010), Japan (1972, 1998), Italy (1956, 2006), Norway (1952, 1994), and Switzerland (1928, 1948) have hosted the Games twice. Germany (1936), Yugoslavia (1984), and Russia (2014) have hosted the Games once. The IOC has selected Pyeongchang, South Korea, to host the 2018 Winter Olympics. No country in the southern hemisphere has hosted or even been an applicant to host the Winter Olympics; the major challenge preventing one hosting the games is the dependence on winter weather, and the traditional February timing of the games falls in the middle of the southern hemisphere summer. Twelve countries - Austria, Canada, Finland, France, Great Britain, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland and the United States - have sent athletes to every Winter Olympic Games. Six of those - Austria, Canada, Finland, Norway, Sweden and the United States - have earned medals at every Winter Olympic Games, and only one - the United States - has earned gold at each Games. Germany and Japan have been banned at times from competing in the Games.
Les athletes that compete in the olympics means less medals earned for the country or continent.
