One aboriginal person from each province and territory were selected to take part in the event.
Putulik, 23, acted as both a torchbearer and a flame attendant during the relay.
He said the flame attendant takes care of the mother flame, which is the actual Olympic flame that came to Canada from Greece for the 2010 Games.
