The ranking in this table is based on information provided by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) and is consistent with IPC convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won (in this context, a nation is an entity represented by a National Paralympic Committee). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals. If nations are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by IPC country code. In the men's downhill standing two silver medals were awarded for a second-place tie. No bronze medal was awarded for that event.http://www.vancouver2010.com/paralympic-games/paralympic-alpine-skiing/schedule-and-results/mens-downhill---standing-_asm110101pPE.html Men's Downhill—Standing Website of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Paralympics VANOC 15 April 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100415194039/http://www.vancouver2010.com/paralympic-games/paralympic-alpine-skiing/schedule-and-results/mens-downhill---standing-_asm110101pPE.html 15 April 2010 live CAN flagIPCteam 2010 Winter 13 5 6 12 16 10 10 5 4 yes 6 2 3 5 8 6 4 5 4 3 4 4 3 3 5 2 0 7 1 4 1 1 3 3 1 3 2 1 2 0 1 2 0 1 0 0 0 1 3 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 0 0 1 See also 2010 Winter Olympics medal table References General Medal Standings Official Website of the Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Games http://www.vancouver2010.com/paralympic-games/medals/ 13 March 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100312230144/http://www.vancouver2010.com/paralympic-games/medals/ 12 March 2010 dead Medal Standings - Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Winter Games International Paralympic Committee http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/reports.html?type=medalstandings&games=2010PWG&sport=all 16 April 2010 5 June 2011 https://archive.today/20110605164755/http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/reports.html?type=medalstandings&games=2010PWG&sport=all live Specific Medal table Category:Winter Paralympics medal tables
