Vancouver
is Canada's fastest-growing metropolis, and a city of magical
contradictions - from rough-and-tumble Hastings Street,
where timeworn brickwork still exudes a wild, beer-for-a-dime,
seaport-town atmosphere, to trendy Robson Street, with its
futuristic Japanese noodle houses and haute couture. Vancouver
has long touted itself as Canada's gateway to the Pacific
Rim, and for decades, waves of immigrants have broken on
its shore.
Vancouver, its residents are fond of saying, is one of the
few cities in the world where you can go skiing and sailing
on the same day. How remarkable, then, that it should also
be one of the few where, sitting outside a Neapolitan cafe,
you can eavesdrop on an impassioned argument in Hungarian
and see graffiti in Khmer. Most major cities have a mixed
heritage, yet few can claim to have attracted a more diverse
cross section of humanity than Vancouver. The city seems
living proof that a benign environment will produce an easygoing
disposition.
