No I wasn't saying that at all. If you read my whole post you would have seen that I posted that video in response to someone else who found a video on youtube about Toronto being supposedly overrun with gang thugs. I was pointing out that youtube videos don't exactly offer the most accurate portrayal of any city. I found that video to show you can find people complaining about anything on youtube.
I actually think Vancouver does many things better than Toronto. For example, the city is way ahead of Toronto on safer heroin shooting clinics. I volunteered for an organization that was trying to get the same program set up in Toronto for crack users.
One of the reasons I love living in downtown Toronto is that you can find a very expensive condo building right next to government housing or a mental hospital. I grew up in a country that was and is still very divided.
I know I would be very happy living in Vancouver. I love Montreal also, but I don't think I can live anywhere colder than Toronto. But I'm just not made for the cold;p
