This Is What VANCOUVER, CANADA Is Like Now 🇨🇦 (Is it still our favourite city?)

[@wnose]

If you have a day to spare (and a car), I suggest packing a lunch and go nature exploring. Start at the Lynn Canyon Bridge (a free suspension bridge), then drive to Cleveland Dam. At the dam, walk down to salmon hatchery. If the timing is right, then you can even see the salmon spawn. If you're feeling energetic, the Grouse Grind is not far away. After that, drive on to Horseshoe Bay and explore a bit. The scenery is gorgeous. Then head north to Porteau Cove for more views. Shannon Falls is next and if Grouse Grind wasn't enough, you can hike up the Chief. (about 3+ hours). Finally, drive up to Tantalus lookout, then turn around and drive back to Vancouver. Try to time it so you can make it to the Quercus point in Murrin Provincial Park in time for sunset. The hike up there is pretty easy, takes about 30 minutes. So if sunset is 7, get started on the hike at 6pm. IMO, best sunset ever. Bring a flashlight because it'll be dark going down.

Wow so many places I have never heard of and I grew up in Vancouver! thanks for sharing 😊

[@dominichill1492]

That is a beautiful beach in Vancouver in my opinion. Also Vancouver is 43 percent Asian. The people in Vancouver are nice as well. Flora and Note it made my day to see you both do a Vancouver tour in this Canada series. You both are the best.

[@FloraandNote]

Thank you Dominic for following this Canada series :)

[@pavelvltchek1612]

I can see why people say Canadians are nice people, in Melbourne the ratio of Asians is like 10% or so and people start to complain that Melbourne has become sub state of China

[@jaygray7102]

​@@pavelvltchek1612 I have relatives in Australia who express those thoughts, they feel isolated from their allies and have a firm belief China will try to take over their country. I guess that's why they make a point of keeping them out. Australians live and travel around the world - when it comes to letting people into their country, it's a different thing entirely

Vancouver is the most livable and beautiful city to live as long as we can afford to live there.

[@kartofle123]

It can't be livable if you can't find housing and when you do it costs more than half your salary. Vancouver used to be a nice city twenty plus years ago but it's sunk into a place where everything revolves around people being obsessed with the value of real estate.

[@billythekid1961]

Great job of showing some of the highlights of Vancouver. When you were looking at the berries at the market, I was thinking you could get such a better deal if you drove out into the Fraser Valley, where the berries are grown.

[@kartofle123]

You don't need to go that far. Just drive 10 minutes to east Van and you'll find everything much cheaper. The fruit stalls at Granville island are a rip off and the women that work there are usually sullen.

[@nixferguson7323]

Awesome vid guys. Would u consider moving back to Canada?

Not anytime in the near future because it's not a great hub for traveling and it's quite expensive to base there. But we're happy to come back to visit family and friends, even though they'd rather come visit us in Thailand 😄

[@caminodetokio4816]

I don’t think that that Sushi is an authentic Japanese food because it looks like Sushi on Mexican Tacos. But, I think Taiyaki seems to be authentic. I strongly believe you can eat an awesome Taiyaki less than 1/3 price in Japan. Now you are in Japan. So, enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine including your beloved Taiyaki. (^_^)

Welcome back to Vancouver. You guys make a good choice moving to Thailand. Vancouver is becoming unlivable. Everything is expensive and the crime rate is rising just like the price of groceries. That's why I stay most of my time in Chiang Mai and only back here in summer. I love Thailand.

Vancouver is not the best city in Canada ... a lot of issues about crimes ( highest in Canada, Surrey ), homless, drugs , people get killed in the subway and on the streets ,50 % asian and do not define Canada .. it rains 8 months per year , speak only one official language of Canada , has no historical and architectural places.... People in Vancouver has no idea about the history of Canada from the past 500 years , does not speak the 2 official languages ,,, the culture of Vancouver is a USA culture and asian ( China and India )..... I find people of VAncouver egocentric , no knledge about Canada and they think they have the best city with crimse, homeless, drugs and rain.

[@aero.l]

What a beautiful view in Canada

[@FreeAgent2468]

I prefer sunny Calgary to grey Vancouver in winter. Instead of buying local produce at Granville Island, which is mainly for tourists, you can u-pick blueberries in Richmond, Surrey, or Langley.

[@kartofle123]

The produce stalls at Granville are there to rip off tourists that don't know any better.

[@TedTed-xh1ys]

Preferring Calgary to anywhere because of weather is like choosing to eat broken glass instead of an apple. Calgary has some of the most unpredictable horrendous weather of any city I've been to. You do get sun, yes, you also get hail, massive storms, arctic winds, and incredible temperature swings unpredictability from hour to hour.

I moved to Vancouver from Ontario about 30 years ago. It was the best idea ever. I love every place these guys visited except for one. The Night Market is the biggest scam going. I went there when it first opened and it was ok. You can get the food anywhere within a 2 mile radius at half the price. The first place I lived was literally next to Granville Island. That place is like no other. I have bought art from some of the galleries there. You need an entire day to explore that place. They had the best chicken and coffee beans as well.
