BBC NEWS | Business | Vancouver is 'best place to live' (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4306936.stm)
"Vancouver is the world's best place to live, a survey by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has found.
The EIU ranked 127 cities in terms of personal risk, infrastructure and the availability of goods and services. "
I've met a few people from there on my travs, and they are pretty interesting, intelligent, well rounded, decent people. So Vancouver scores a plus from me in that respect. They all say how great it is there, and they boast about how good their weed is and how relaxed they are about it over there. Is that what theya re talking about availlibility of goods?:pimp:
I dunno I might go and live there some day, I like mountains as well.

I hope you don't need your arm.. or leg.. cause that's what living there will cost you... one of each.

I need at least 4 of them. Maybe I can work there chopping wood or something instead of having my limbs severed. In any case it'd be a better lifestyle than 9-5 in the office and probably cost about the same in terms of limb damage.

I often wish for a 9-5 day...

I bet you don't really. Unless you are a nightshift worker. 9-5 sucks, at least it does when you have to suffer 5 of them a week.

Indeed the weed there is amazing! I visit often, see concerts there whenever a good metal band comes (just saw Heaven and Hell with Megadeth:jointsmile:). They are so lenient on the weed there that they have an Amsterdam Cafe (that's the business name), 2 or 3 of them I think. Overal it's just a bitchtin city, though I hear good things about Victoria too.
However, whether or not it's the best place to live depends on personal criteria. You also need to take into accout air pollution (not too bad though), crime, living costs, the rampant drug problem (heroin), and so forth.

I would agree with that, it is absolutly beautiful, there is water and mountains, the people are friendly, the bud is great (and cheaper than it is here in Philly where I am now living) I plan on moving back there in the near future.

I moved to Vancouver last summer and I love it. Living is a tad pricey, but split with the 2 other people I live with brings the living costs down to about the same as it was in Alberta. In Alberta though, that was the same cost living by yourself.

Eh... Vancouver weed is alright, I honestly was not impressed with B.C. Bud. My friends and I drove drove all over Vancouver for days hitting up different dealers... Just my two cents.

if Canada wasn't so hard on immigrants I would really consider moving there...
