There are very spacious towns on Vancouver Island. Downtown Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton , to mention a few. Major centres!! Holy smokes, what do you expect? People with varied lifestyles living accordingly.

Great video Donn ... loved the perspective that no one else I have found has done. Door entrances was hugely interesting thought. I'll be thinking that one for a while. Cheers from the BC Rockies.

Did you not leave your apartment in Vancouver? Its one of the most walkable cities in the world. Its full of parks, downtown is Stanley park with the longest natural seawall trail in the world. Go less than an hour outside of Vancouver, its total wilderness, beautiful.

Good video. It makes me really want visit Dublin.

Plus one for Mr. Cavan. Things are really different outside the big cities. Unfortunately for us, municipal and provincial governments in Canada are largely captured by real estate developers. So we find ourselves in the absurd position of being the second largest country in the world and the highest housing costs per square metre for the tiniest condos allowed. I once viewed a condo in downtown Ottawa. It was so tiny that I asked the realtor how one would get furniture through the door. She told me that they make special furniture to fit into modern condos. Yep...

In downtown Calgary you can actually find some of the original buildings that started Calgary

Great video!! I think you’ll find that the feeling of space (or lack of space:) is unique to Vancouver. Vancouver has the highest density of people in Canada and as you pointed out, home ownership is pretty much impossible unless you are wealthy.... So we all live in our shoe box apartments (but the mountains and oceans are beautiful).

Vancouver is squashed between the mountains & the coast, space is at a premium, compared to other parts of Canada.

I'm moving to Galway at the end of the month to pursue my master's at NUIG. This video was great!! Although if you want more space and architecture, come to the Atlantic :)

An "Immersion" comprises a copper tank filled with water & a heater. The "Immersion" is an electric heating element that sits inside the copper tank. When you want hot water you need to turn the immersion ON - then leave ON until the tank is hot. You want a bath--or shower--you turn it ON. When you do not need hot water you leave it OFF. Mostly these days they are timer controlled... Most old house have immersion heaters for the hot water. Latterly they were replaced by oil or gas central heating boilers which heated the radiators and also heated the copper hot water tanks. Nowadays the boilers heat the radiators for the house and are "Instantaneous hot water heaters" so you do not need a copper tank nor immersion. Turn on the hot water tap or shower and the boiler instantaneously heats the water. Technology arrives in Ireland...and UK by the way

@@BrandonHilikus It's been 14 months now and I don't regret it at all. Do I miss my life in Vancouver? Absolutely, sometimes painfully so. More than that I think I miss the PERSON I was when I didn't live in Ireland, more confident, less critical and not caring so much what others thought of me. It's hard to hold onto that person here. But I'm also really enjoying building my new life at home. People in Vancouver seem...stuck, for want of a better word. It doesn't matter if they're 30, 40 or 50, there's a youthful mindset which is absolutely great for a period of time but starts to get rather old (excuse the pun) after a while. There's a lot of fun things to distract yourself with, but is anyone really building anything of permanence? While Vancouver really felt like it was my home after a year or so, nothing beats your actual home. Maybe it can be best explained with this small anecdote; on my first week back I was going for a walk in my small hometown and as I passed a stranger coming the opposite direction he looked me straight in the eye and said a simple 'Hello'. I was so taken back by this that I don't think I even answered the fella. This is something that, for all it's surface-level politeness, NEVER happens in a city like Vancouver. Here it happens every few meters and I appreciate it every single time. I'd forgotten that this is what human beings should actually do when confronted with one another. I hope it never changes.

As a Canadian that's been all over this country I have to say Vancouver is one of my least favourite Canadian cities and it always surprises people. Victoria on Vancouver island on the other hand is gorgeous and one of my top Canadian cities to visit. I live in Toronto and feel we have more green space and a nice beach front compared to Vancity, plus a lot more to do. Vancouver is very expensive, has crazy levels of crime and addiction and always seems dirty, dull and dangerous. My favourite cities are Victoria, Montreal, Toronto, Quebec City, St. John's NL and Saskatoon as a prairie city. Like most Canadian places, all are best to visit in summer or fall.

You missed coming to visit Newfoundland, especially the east coast of the province which is often compared to Ireland. Where else in NA will you find the Irish Loop?

Hmmmm I'm from the Vancouver area and there are LOADS of HUGE green spaces. Did you live downtown in the middle of the city??? Appreciated your comparisons as I'm moving to Ireland soon.

I'm old enough to be yer Da and in the last 30 to 40 years Canada has lost the soul of who it used to be. It used to be like America, a melting pot where folk came from all over to be Canadian. They kept their cultural identity, but were Canadian. Now it's ultra-multi cultural and to be honest it's anyone's guess who Canadians are. Maybe I'll retire in Ireland.

This is a huge point. So many of the people moving to Canada today are not in the slightest bit interested in actually 'being Canadian'. Unfortunately most Canadians can't seem to grasp what a detrimental effect that is having on the countries sense of identity and solidarity as a people. Further they actually go out of their way to enable this lack of assimilation under a misguided attempt to be inclusive. Vancouver especially felt like a city of people living peacefully side-by-side but not actually living as one collective society. This led to so much underlying tension and I think is a huge reason why some describe the city as 'soulless' and 'lonely'.
