Calgary is better, and that is not saying much at all!

Whoa Whoa. Whoa! I may not like the grey winters but I lived in a few Canadian cities and Vancouver is the best. I have lived in:

Montreal - Lots of snow and culture.
Toronto - Boring concrete.
Halifax - Friendly and fun.
Calgary - Fine as a kid, would not want to live there as an adult. Too conservative for my tastes.
Vancouver - Excellent outdoors possibilities. Nice climate other than the grey winters.
