Vancouver 3rd best place to live in the world

Vancouver is the best city in Canada in which to live, and the third-best place in the world, according to an annual quality of life survey.

Of 215 cities polled, Vancouver came behind only the Swiss cities of Zurich and Geneva, Mercer Human Resource Consulting said in its annual Worldwide Quality of Living Survey.

Vancouver kept the same ranking as last year, while Toronto edged up one spot to 15th and Ottawa climbed three spots to 18th place. Montreal ranked 22nd and Calgary 25th.

Vancouver topped the other Canadian cities due to its natural environment and recreational sites.

It’s the relative nearness of the mountains, skiing, the ocean . . . as well as the moderate climate relative to the rest of the country.
