I'm sorry, but, no, Vancouver is NOT a world class city except in the mind of its own citizens. I have lived in this city (Vancouver) for the last 15 years; and it has nothing compared to the other truly world-class cities I've lived in (San Francisco, London England). I've also spent a long of time in Hong Kong, and lived in Montreal and Calgary (but the latter two don't count as world-class).
