Vancouver

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.
Man B: Oh, cool.

vancouver

One of the greatest cities in the world. Voted as one of the most livable cities in the world. Full of different people and cultures. Also the host city of the 2010 Olympics. Vancouver is known as a rainy city, with mild winters and summers. Sadly, the city still has too much crime, drugs, and hobos. Also, Vancouver is the drug capital of Canada, and maybe the world (sadly), and even the term "skid row" came from the dirty and sad Downtown Eastside.

"Vancouver is so great."
"The Vancouver's Downtown Eastside is gross."
"There are too many drugies in Vancouver."
