I would agree Vancouver and Vienna are rigth up there. If I stay in Canada i'll be living in Vancouver for sure. Vienna is an AWESOME city but you can't live there without speaking german.

agreed. Not much of an edm scene there but Van is by far the nicest city in Canada.. healthy ppl too (well, except for the skid row Eastside crackville part). Tons of hot, plastic Hollywood north-inspired barbies there too.

I'm surprised Ottawa ranked so high, but if you want to save money, you move here.

Ottawa is actually a super nice city. Trouble is there's no real jobs, so you have to work for the government. And the only nice part of town is where I live, but most ppl can't afford to live here.

Weird no cities from China hmm...

For sure Montreal has potential, just remove Bill 101

Woops, didnt realize it was from 2005, aahaha.

Good to see more Canadian cities in the 2007 one though! Montreal ftw.

No cities from China Jesse? LOL please tell me that's sarcasm, they gave China the olympics expecting them to change their "ways" and what does the Communist party do? They evict thousands upon thousands of citizens, give pitiful compensation and then bulldoze entire neighbourhoods and small cities to make room for stadiums and factories, lolcivil-liberties.

not on the same list.

2 lists for North American and one for the whole planet. None for Economic potential for the whole globe. True there is a list that you didn't post with the future economic of each major city.

Plus way too lazy to look it up.
