I am pretty much born and raised in Edmonton but I want to live in BC. I spent the summer of 09 on Vancouver Island and I fell in love. I used to live in Atlanta, Ga for 2 years and have been to Florida and other southern states a few times, and I would have to say Vancouver Island is the most beautiful place I have been so far. And the people are of a different breed(I think they put something in the water).
Not to mention you guys have the soft acidic tap water!!! /Jealous!
I still love Edmonton but the weather is really demoralizing.
