[QUOTE="Lone Wolf '49, post: 1557111, member: 3016"] A cousin (now in her late 50's) now living back in Houston worked (contracts expert) in the Vancouver, BC office of CH2MHILL for three years until 2008. She did not need a car, but that's another story. She enjoyed it, but she was working and flying to and from other offices in Canada. Never had anything negative to say at all. Only reason she returned after three years was to care for a family member in Houston. Now, to visit, no personal experience but long time friend and wife stopped through Vancouver several years ago after visiting a son at Army base in AK, I think it was Ft. Wainwright. They enjoyed it so much they have gone back every August for 7 to 10 days for the vacation. Most of everything is gov't owned, even the liquor stores, many Orientals there who are quiet and polite but will not look one in the eye when walking down the street. Also, auto traffic in rush hour and all times they noticed that no one honked their horns. Many areas nearby to walk, bike and horse ride and so forth. They are my age and pretty active and thoroughly have enjoyed each year and they plan on going every year. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
