Vancouver is the most ‘liveable’ city apparently – it has one of the most temperate climates in Canada with the city more likely to bask in summer sunshine and disappear under winter rain than be buried beneath months of impenetrable snow.

Despite being an exceptionally densely populated city, Vancouver manages to maintain high standards of healthcare, transportation, education, cleanliness and law enforcement.
