There are three countries that bid for the Olympics. Those countries are Austria, Russia, and South Korea.
Countries bid on the games and the Olympic committee makes the selection.
The 2014 Winter Olympics are going to be held in Sochi, Russia. Sochi beat out the other contenders of Pyeonchang, South Korea (now the 2018 Winter Olympics Site) and Salzburg, Austria.
The Winter Olympics as well as the Summer Olympics have not been held in Toronto Canada as of 2010. Toronto will likely not bid on hosting the Olympics at least until 2014, due to Vancouver Canada hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics. If Toronto does win a Winter or Summer bid as host city, that bid will be for 2018 or 2020 respectively.
Countries will bid on the Olympics approx. 6 years before then a vote is taken as to who won, for instance the next summer Olympics for 2012 will be held in London,England then the next Winter Olympics will be held in Russia in 2014.
