  • Bordered by the Coast Mountain Range and the Pacific Ocean, Vancouver is recognized as one of the world's most livable cities with a rich history and one of the smallest carbon footprints of any major city in North America.

      Greg Bly Strictly-speaking, there are NO "indigenous" people in North America. The first residents migrated here from Asia. The most accurate descriptive for these first migrants is "First Nations." The rest of us trace our roots from either European colonists or immigrants.

    The organizers for the 2010 Olympic event represented the Indigenous peoples art but only if it came from China. No actual Indigenous artist was allowed to set up anywhere in or near the event. How's that for Vancouver saying they're an inclusive city and there's no racism in Vancouver.
