In the winter time, one can go sailing in the morning, golfing in the afternoon, and snow skiing in the evening. All in Vancouver . . .

Vancouver is so genuinely amazing. Thanks for covering Canadian cities! I just watched Vancouver and Calgary. Toronto, Montreal, Quebec City, and Ottawa are my suggestions for your next videos. All of them are very unique and Ottawa, Montreal, and Quebec city all have visible, authentic, and beautiful castles as part of their skyline!

Moved to Vancouver from California in 1982, best move I ever made.

I live in Vancouver, and I love it!

So lovely to see how my hometown is viewed by others. I now live in New Brunswick which has a different kind of beauty but there’s still nothing like Vancouver! Thanks for showcasing this beautiful city!

Montreal has more to offer ( underrated )than Vancouver ( overreated)... Montreal ranked # 1 in the world for sustainability , Vancouver #4 .... Montreal is the canadian capital of culture, architecture, history , food, fashion , arts , UNESCO world city of design, largest urban park in Canada . The St Lawrence river is more impressive than teh bay in Vancouver ..... Quebec province offers more diversity of landscape, wildlife and the best quality of life in Canada . Vancouver is an asian city with the highest crime rate in Canada , drug addicts and homeless ... and unilingual...

Vancouver is my favourite city I’ve ever been to. It’s such a gem because its a big city, so theres a great night-life/big city activities, but also is on an ocean (which has beaches and fun beach stuff to do) and has some of the best hiking/mountain biking in the world, along with the best ski resort in the world.

I have no idea how people can afford a home in Vancouver BC. Starter homes are a million?

The skyline in much of Vancouver is more East Asian or Mediterranean (e.g. Israeli, Greek, Italian, Iberian) or Latin American than typically North American in terms of there being lots of high-rise apartment buildings with the office buildings in the central business district being not much higher if at all.

For American viewers that 33m minimum height of buildings is 108ft and the average height of the 5 tallest buildings combined is 554ft. That suspension bridge over that river would be equivalent to 230ft....off of the river.

00:03:18 - this shot is *NOT Stanley Park* >>> it’s instead, Portside Park (aka CRAB Park*) another park flanking the eastern central downtown waterfront of Burrard Inlet. ______________________ * Why is it called Crab Park? Portside Park was first envisioned / lobbied for by a local neighbourhood committee known as *Create a Real Available Beach* or “ *CRAB* “. Though the park was officially named Portside Park in 1987, the community moniker of “CRAB” has stuck as the preferred name over the past number of years.

It is just so incredibly unaffordable here. I've lived in Vancouver for 5 years, and prices have soared exponentially. I do, however, think there is a lot to do here if you love sightseeing and food. Transit is also amongst the best in North America. The climate is comfortable and the mildest in Canada during the winters. It rains often from October through April, but does have very dry and sunny summers.

Very depressing. Watch “Vancouver is dying” to get the real sense of this city. 3,5 million views.

it's incredibly overrated man, it has it's moments, the food and drink scene is great, and the nature is next to none, and for the more sort of lazy individual it's a very "easy" city to live in in terms of its size and ease of getting around. downsides are like you said, the horrendous drugs and homelessness and the sketchy situations this brings, the constant rain and greyness, it has some of the ugliest and dullest architecture i've ever seen and the people here are really, really lame. however it's easy to carve a decent life here, depending on what your field of work is it isn't nearly as expensive or unliveable as people say (if you work in hospitality you will thrive) and it is a very healthy place to live which is important to me as I get older. there's also so many expats here and people from other provinces although the locals can be annoying there's heaps of other people to make friends with. I guess you could say I love to hate it!
