Thanks for your feedback, Almost Canadian, but I will be the one who decides on that.

You can get Downtown from pretty much anywhere using the Skytrain, it's quick and easy! If you want less expensive and leafy, you have to go further out. North van is lovely, but getting to and from Downtown can be a nightmare if the bridge is out, and it often is!! Heading Eastwards, you get Burnaby/New West/Coquitlam, all are on the Skytrain and you can be sure of your times, whatever the roads or bridges are doing. Suite rentals around 800- 1200.
Don't over do your rent! Be prepared, everything costs more here!!!
But most of all Good Luck.

Coquitlam is not on the skytrain...but NW and Burnaby are.

No need to make a personal attack. Based upon your posts to date, I do not believe you will like Calgary. That is why I posted what I posted. I still believe this to be true. Whether you will depends upon how you feel about Calgary; I accept that.

Have you ever been to Calgary? If so, what did you like/dislike about it? If you give us some information, some that live here may be willing to assist you.
