I am aware that some people would take Philly, Florida, Toronto, etc over Quebec City. But I wouldn't. And I may be in the minority but I don't think the consensus is as strongly against Quebec City as some in this thread claim. And the language barrier is overblown by people in the west.

I also find that people in Canada tend to put American cities on a pedestal. I have visited a lot of them and many aren't that special. Outside of California and the major centres like Chicago and New York, a lot of American cities are way overhyped by Canadians, in my opinion.
