NOTE: That data is nearly ten years old, and a conservative estimate would likely put Calgary at closer to 27-28% foreign-born residents now.
With respect to "large metropolitan centres", I'm not sure how Vancouver qualifies. Vancouver is 23rd largest in North America, grouped with Tampa, Denver, and Minneapolis. |
You're missing the point. For city life, I would place money on Kane finding Vancouver more attractive than Calgary. Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's just the truth.
I'm a die-hard Flames fan and I'm from Calgary. But Vancouver, as a whole, is a more interesting city to be in for many reasons. It's also one of the most beautiful cities in the world, in Canada, and it's relatively warm.
But I digress, let's get back on topic.
