True, but it's one of the comparatively few places in Canada that absolutely never experiences -20c, and normally doesn't have snow on the ground for longer than a couple days at a time (except this last winter.) Most other Canadian cities go through ice-building cycles in the late Autumn that can persist in neighborhood streets all the way through to late Spring.

True, but that's still better than -30degC and 2m of snow during winter; and +40degC (without humidex) during summer. So for Canada, yeah, that's pretty good.

It's all relative. I'd rather live in Vancouver than Arizona or Texas. I'd rather deal with rain than extreme heat.

Seriously, it's like Seattle but without the jobs.

And the jobs there don't pay very well. The food is wonderful though, better than Seattle IMHO and it's a lovely city in general.

Yeah, in my experience most of the US has shitty food. Take NY as an example, if you want an expensive meal you can get great food, but if you want a quick and healthy lunch you find yourself struggling.

Almost any local New Yorker will know where to get a quick, healthy, $7-10 lunch.

Someone in town for the day might have to open Yelp: https://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Cheap+Fast+Lunch&find_...

I obviously need new friends.

Data shows Vancouver gets 10% less sunshine than Seattle. That's horrific.

it's not great but if it's sunny in vnancouver it means it's a nice day to be outside. there's almost no days where it's sunny but too hot or cold to use your patio/deck/balcony

You mean because there's no sun from December to March?

Horrific is a major exaggeration since the weather is the least extreme of all major Canadian cities. Rain and clouds for months isn't horrific, it's bland.
