lol. purelife, I don't find Vancouver dull. I am not into nitelife though. It is as exciting as any city on the west coast for me. Just too many gangs, drugs, and depression. I think it is the weather too. Amazing to see rays of sun in February. Cling on to every last bit you can. I woul drather be a little cooler and actually see more sun in the winter.
Lise, sportsdude and I could agree, we love Canada. I think BC (besides being taxed to hell), is the best place I could imagine living.
I just want to get lost in the forest with no crappy crowded neighbourhoods and lame condos, drive by shootings, heroin addicts begging for money, trying for an hour to get a parking spot at a boring mall, arrghh, McDonalds everywhere!? All the while making over $90,000 a year and "just" getting by!??!
Vancouver is probably one of the most unfriendly cities in North America.
