Wow that was wildly inaccurate, they didn't mention heroin addiction at all
Might be a bit of an apologist but some of those points apply to any other city. Who doesn't complain about gas prices, apart from Rex W. Tillerson.
I wouldn't mind moving to Vancouver.

i need to go to canada some day [QUOTE=Thlis;45410415]Might be a bit of an apologist but some of those points apply to any other city. Who doesn't complain about gas prices, apart from Rex W. Tillerson.[/QUOTE] this guy got the spirit
[QUOTE=pentium;45410562]I wouldn't mind being bankrupt. [/QUOTE] Cheaper than living in the UK, if I can manage in the capital here, I could easily manage in Vancouver (I've visited before). Shame it's so difficult to move to Canada despite it being in the Commonwealth.
Nice tits
You can also be a Vancouverite by destroying your own city when you lose at hockey.
[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;45410936]You can also be a Vancouverite by destroying your own city when you lose at hockey.[/QUOTE] They mentioned that.
[QUOTE=pentium;45411070]They mentioned that.[/QUOTE] I figured they did but I was on my phone so I didn't watch the video. Sorry.
Considering that Canada has one of the highest immigration rates (per capita) and naturalization rates in the world, it's not like you'd be trying to move to Switzerland. Also, you should move the the cultural capital of Canada instead: Montréal. In downtown city up to 50% of people can speak English so it's not like you wouldn't have anyone to talk to.
They forgot to include an irrational fear of travelling through surrey.

I live in Montreal now I can confirm it is fucking awesome
half of that stuff applies to any major city.

And our weather here is something we all do collectively bitch about I think that's a general human condition but at least in vancouver the reason for that is the inconcistency of our weather. And we have TERRIBLE traffic problems. Like actual ones.

[QUOTE=Pandamox;45412416]people who live basically anywhere in alberta don't complain about gas prices 135.9 in vancouver, 109.9 in edmonton. wtf man[/QUOTE] That's an old price. 155.9 in vancouver, 113.9 in edmonton.
They didn't mention wearing faux-dress shoes without socks. [editline]b[/editline] I only knew 2/5 of step 12 btw.
The only rule for Victorians over on the Island is that we pretend we're more important than Vancouver. Also make fun of Langford. Forever.
[QUOTE=Acezorz;45412245]I live in Montreal now I can confirm it is fucking awesome[/QUOTE] i went to montreal last week and it was like boston but the people spoke french and there was nothing to do i also felt really self-conscious about how much i looked like a tourist
Most of that stuff also, is pretty much the same with us Danes. :v: We always complain how the weather is either too fucking hot, or too cold.
You're not gonna get away with saying that Vancouver has a lot of cougars.

[QUOTE=pentium;45414198]That's an old price. 155.9 in vancouver, 113.9 in edmonton.[/QUOTE] That's not an old price, that's just the lowest price in both cities. since that post it's down to 107.4 at a few costcos in edmonton
[QUOTE=cdr248;45419149]I thought Montreal was filled with bigoted french canadians than think they are actual french.[/QUOTE] It's the first time I've heard that stereotype. Usually people paint us as lumberjacks that like poutine, beer and hockey and dislike both English Canadians and French people equally.
Drove to Vancouver for new years in 2012-13 and i think we were driving through hastings when this crackhead came sprinting into the middle of the road in a beeline for the car so we stopped and he kept running straight at our car and we were just like "fuck" and then at the last minute he just ran past the drivers side and corrected back to his original crackhead vector and kept running
