Paralympics broadcast live on CTV

Cudos to CTV for broadcasting the Opening Ceremonies for Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Games live.  They weren't going to do it (as it had never been broadcast live before).  Kinda a nice touch eh?

They've upload a great video overview of the ceremony (don't worry, it's short).

Interestingly, just as in the Olympic Opening ceremony the colour commentator quietly left the host (the venerable Brian Williams) half way through in order to participate in the lighting of the torch.  It seems that CTV and VANOC think alike in terms of who Canadians want to be involved.

Some official photos have been uploaded VANOC already. And if you missed it or just don't like the talking commentators, ParalympicSport.tv has a stream of the official IPC broadcast feed. Go Internet!
