Everyone's given you the fact that the west end is now officially part of downtown Vancouver, because it simply feels that way. Either way it's still 75k people short of the strictest definitions of downtown Toronto.

And to your comment that people's feelings have been hurt by one comment - um no. I've had the same stupid conversation with someone in Calgary who claimed downtown Calgary was busier than downtown Vancouver. ssiguy's original comment obviously had some provocation associated with it, so I'm sure if someone on here made that same Calgary claim, Vancouver posters would pounce all over it.
