I've found that most people I meet in Vancouver aren't born and raised here either. I agree with FlyLock ^, Vancouver is just a tough nut to crack socially. Most of my friends here are from or have Calgary connections. There's quite a few ex-Calgarians here, I think they make up the friendly part of Vancouver's population. And it makes for a fun time at GM Place.
