Among Canadian Cities, Vancouver Is Number One
In a national survey on the best Canadian cities, Vancouver finished with top honors. But other Canadian cities were also recognized for their strengths.
"The Angus Reid poll found other cities have their strong points: Montreal is the best place to eat, drink and shop in, Toronto is good for taking in a baseball game and a museum, and Calgary is a job-hunter's paradise."
"But Vancouver was ranked the best city in Canada with 13 per cent of the votes; best city to live in, with 14 per cent; and favourite city to vacation in, with 23 per cent."
"The poll results list Montreal as the second-best city to live (11 per cent), as well as the best city in Canada (12 per cent)."
"Calgary was chosen the employment capital of Canada, with 36 per cent of Canadians surveyed picking Cowtown as the best city in which to find a job."
"Toronto showed strong numbers in three areas: best city for sports and recreation (23 per cent), best city for arts and culture (23 per cent), and best city in which to do business (37 per cent)."
