There's also a Dauphine rattling around Guelph but that's probably not a Renault to set Bats' heart afire.

I see one now and then (a Safari not the drop top) and an SM but neither of them has the fabulous swivelling headlights; I think that to get those you either need a car originally sold in Europe or have to fund an expensive conversion.

Re: what am I missing?
Further north Disneyland which I enjoy along with other theme parks.
I spent a lot of time at the SD Zoo, along with the various museums as several have rotating exhibits so it's not always the same exact thing.
Vancouver really has nothing comparable to San Diego/So. California.
Also have to add in a plethora of educational opportunities at reasonable tuition through the community college system, so you can access education without needing financial aid as you do here. (unless you have the cash resources to pay the inflated tuition in BC.)

I just did a random check for Pharmacy Technician. Unless I'm misreading something it's $6k in NB and $4k at Vancouver.

Re: what am I missing?
I dont think u are missing anything it's what it is, and it's what u make of it that counts.
For us it's Footy at the week ends, (son plays semi pro) sitting on the deck, seadooing whenever possible on the nearby lake and chilling in the pool, BBQ every day and being financially secure being that my job pays so much better here.
Winter is well winter.

Re: what am I missing?
where are you living? what is it that makes you want to leave? How the hell have you stuck it for 7 years in that frame of mind?

Not to say it's not the place for the OP, what some one else likes is not always good for everyone.

Zoo, warm beaches good for swimming and relaxing, (beaches in Vancouver are not comparable), seaside cliff's, a couple dozen museums of various sorts that are low cost and free once a month for residents on a rotating basis, Balboa Park.
Further north Disneyland which I enjoy along with other theme parks.

There is also a zoo, admission $25. San Diego Zoo admission $48.
I don't want you to think I am picking on you, but you do seem to be a glass half empty kind of a guy. I saw a quote the other day it was "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it."
