Most:

London. London is "middle Canada" economically, demographically, and socially. This is why London has always been Canada's "test market city". If it is appealing to Londoners it can be applied elsewhere. This is why it has one of the first McDonalds', the first TV cable service in Canada, and the first downtown mall in NA. London, like Canadians, are reserved but progressive and the city has ALWAYS been a Liberal bastion support Canada's "natural governing party".
Montreal. Cold, snowy, and blends French, English, and ethnic/racial minorities.
Winnipeg. Very cold, snowy, embraces it's winters, sprawl but a strong downtown, and a leftist, progressive mindset.

Least:
St.John's. Totally different mindset, history, culture.
Toronto. It's exceptionally cosmopolitan nature does not reflect the reality of the rest of the country.
Van/Vic. Different climate, looks to Asia/China while the rest of the country still looks back to Europe. huge Chinese population, thinks it's California.
