The Olympic Flame (Translated from the above text:

The Olympic Flame is a commemorative monument to the 1200 names of Canadian athletes who won a medal at the modern Olympic Games. Composed of sections in chromed stainless steel, the structure forms a continuous ribbon welcoming at its center a flame illuminated by LED. Inaugurated as part of the Canadian Olympic Excellence Day on July 9, 2015, and the official opening of the Canadian Olympic House in downtown Montreal, the Olympic Flame was presented to the public during the Olympic rings above Montreal. A true world premiere, the Olympic Flame is designed to welcome the names of future Canadian Olympic winners and to inspire younger generations with a passion for sport and the Olympic Games.
