The idea of Vancouver being equivalent to Calgary in term of "urban amenities" and having the "LOWEST quality of life in the country" is more than having a "less than a glowing view". To feel such need to come into someone's huge photothread to dispute and disprove the way their photos present the city and criticize the city and its people so strongly is pathetic. I saw both positive and negative aspects in the photos here, the OP did take time to go off the beaten track, even mentioning Downtown Eastside, giving us a much more balanced presentation of the city, much easier to take seriously than you two.
