WOW Vancouver....

Jjaden

No need to apologize. I love Vancouver, particularly White Rock, where I grew up, and I intend to move back to in the future when my career allows.

Look at the Slogan on the license above the photo, it is quite arrogant and really quite pomp.



Unfortunately this is how many people view Vancouver / B.C.

Is "The Best Place on Earth" the worst slogan on planet? - The Search

I really did feel while living in B.C. I was reminded of the American style of childish 'We're the best' in your face attitude where looking down your nose on the rest of Canada was part of the culture, and most are totally unable to tolerate any type of criticism.

This was just my observation and I found it very strange. But apparently as the article I linked to suggests, it is a very real phenominon and many other people have picked up on this.

My best example is the SouthPark episode 'Smug Alert', instead of San Francisco, sub in Vancouver.

Since you moved into Vancouver I'm surprised you haven't noticed all the people who have lived their entire lives have this attitude. When I would comment on how much I loved it there, people would get this"Uhmm of course vancouver is the best, what are you stupid?" look on their faces.

Anyhow, like I said, I intend to move back, and consider myself fortunate to have grown up in White Rock, but I was always very aware of the 'better than the rest of Canada' attitude the province seems to convey.
