You've got to figure out several things to enjoy it here IMO. Career, housing and social life. I mean you probably need to figure those things out anywhere, but they are more challenging here than in other cities and can take more time to develop. If any of that isn't lining up the winter rains just feel that much more gloomy. Being from Alberta but now having lived here nearly a decade of my life now, yeah its a weird place. I don't think any of the other major Canadian cities have the weird mix of cost stress and social awkwardness that goes on here. It's a different vibe. That being said, if you can figure it out, it is a good place to live.
