And yeah, Vancouver, and Montreal are in the top 5 places to live in the world.

how can you possibly say what the best places to live in the world are  ???

I mean how can this be based on "facts"?

There's lots of studies done on it, every year the UN also does a list of the top places in the world to live. It's all based on everything that would make a place desirable to live. Canada scored #1 for many years in the 90's and we consistently score near the top. Nowadays I believe #1 is Sweden.

depending on the high depression and suicide rate in sweden Im not so sure  ???

anyways I dont trust those lists

anybody got some links with further information?

Suga Foot:
I have the 2004 Human Development Report from the UN.

There are different lists on it. 

But the top 5 countries are:

Norway
Sweden
Australia
Canada
Netherlands


There are tons of different studies that come out every year rating the best place to live.  The city I live in (Port Moody, BC) just won 2 awards for the best place to live.  Vancouver and Melbourne usually fight for #1.

Life Expectancy, Annual Income, Literacy, Unemployment, Poverty, ect. 

It's not hard to do.

I think more people would rather live in LA or New York than any city in Canada.

Good point, why would someone want to live in Canada with free health care, better employment rates, lower cost of living, less pollution and less crime?
