World's Most Livable Cities Index: Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary Take Spots In Top 10→

Canada may not always rank among the top tier countries at the Olympics, but when it comes to cities, we know our stuff.

The Economist’s latest edition of its Most Livable Cities Index lists Vancouver, Toronto and Calgary among the 10 most livable metropolitan areas in the world. Montreal was the only other Canadian city to rank in the 140-city survey, placing at 16th.

The results for Canada’s top-10 cities are identical to last year, when Vancouver dropped out of first place for the first time in nearly a decade, evidently onconcerns about a highway closure on Vancouver Island. Calgary and Toronto have been climbing steadily up the list over the years.
