I completely agree that I would rather have the sun and dry cold rather than Vancouver's weather, but I think in these ranking Vancouver has a much more desirable climate due to the significantly higher average temperature over the course of the year.

Let's face it, Calgary weather although having many redeeming qualities is one of the drawbacks of living here according to most people. In general, Canadians deal with a lot of uncomfortable weather. We do not get the disasterous weather (for the most part) but we do struggle through a climate that most human being know no part of. This explains our very low population compared to our land mass.
