van city not good anymore? is Sean coming too  |
Vancouver is great, it's just that I only have 3 classes left to finish my degree in commerce, and I can't get them here at the universities. So I'm back to Montreal to my old apartment, and yes, Sean is coming too

And Kate: What's up with Vancouver? Last day, I was reading the english homework from one of my friend in college, and he add to answer questions about a text on Vancouver city. The thing is, this text described the city like a very sterile place, where everything costs too much, with too neat places, almost as if garbages were taken too often. The text even rant about the architecture being too conservative.
I think that this text generalised too much for the city. It's just that I found odd to read about that in an homework context. |
That does sound weird... I'd say Vancouver is very very clean city, especially compared to Montreal. I'd say it's a bit easier to keep it clean with the lack of slush and snow and salt all over the city in the winter, but they're a very environmentally friendly city. You're only allowed to put out 2 bags of garbage per house, everyone recycles, they eat healthy, etc. It's just the west-coast mentality, I'd say.
As well, housing is very expensive, but then Montreal's is pretty cheap compared to most of North America. It's a growing city and it's in a beautiful surrounding, so it's becoming much more popular. If that text showed it in a bad light, I disagree with that. It's a great city to live, but it's not my Montreal
