Thanks todd for that eye-opening essay about how most Vancouverites are on welfare, and how our beloved Yaletown can't hold a match to what-did-you-say-Edmonton ??? Pity our arts scene, but I don't think the milfs and surfers out here have the time or gayness to stare at a Picasso through some nonprescription set of thick glasses. You should thank us for being so generous. really. Some other town without the luxury of hot chicks, good food, nice architecture, good weather, beaches and glorious scenery should hold the title of Canada's cultural capital. Not hating on any place, but people who knock Vancouver either haven't seen it in 20 years or don't know shit about what they're talking about.
Don't hate on Vancouver, you easterners!!!

A city on the west coast with godly scenery that enjoys California weather, to which sad bitter obese easterners living in a grey architectureless mess of a wet fart called Toronto hope to some day move to, that is if they can fork out the three-quarters million pricetag for a lower-middle class three bedroom rowhouse two hours away from downtown in leafty suburbs that aren't really suburbs since the lots are about 20 feet wide due to smart city planning.
Fat White boy from Toronto: Yeah I live in Rosedale man.
Asian from Vancouver: Eight city blocks of old money trash
Fat White boy from Toronto: FOB with no working credentials.
Asian from Vancouver: Let's go, my SLR vs ur mother's cadillac

One of Canada's largest cities, noted for its temperate climate, dense and diverse population, and beautiful scenery, as well as its proximity to winter-sports mecca Whistler.
The thriving metropolis of Vancouver, nestled between the mountains and the seashore, is constantly voted one of the world's best places to live.

A Canadian city where people smoke so much weed, breathing in a bad neighborhood can make you stoned.
There's also a hobo shooting up heroin every 2 meters, Just avoid anywhere outside the highrise area. especially surrey.

Also good luck moving here. housing prices go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Person 1: Hey you hear Jake is moving to Vancouver
Person 2: very funny. nobody can afford that.
Person 1: well he's already a heroin addict so I think he fits the bill

Large city in the province of British Columbia in western Canada. Includes suburban areas such as Surrey and New Westminster in its metro area. A lot of movies are made here. Basketball team moved to Memphis, Tennessee.
I didn't know if I had arrived in Vancouver until someone told me I had.

Westernmost important city in Canada, beautiful scenery, lots of glass buildings. Looks like something out of an episode of pokemon. We have fantastic skateboarding, food, and entertainment. Lots of good venues for shows. Close to mountains, meaning camping, skiing/snowboarding, and hiking is very popular. Lots of passive asians. Be sure to go to gastown and follow hipsters walking around and go to Granville street at night to see fake Guidos shouting beefs at each other outside of the clubs. I won't mention the cost of living cause everyone else does.
Man A: I'm from Vancouver.
