It's got pretty good metro service which must be a plus. Montreal and Toronto both have a good collection of urban neighbourhoods that are well-served by subway stations.

Vancouver is much less like this. The SkyTrain is more of a suburban commuter service, and inner neighbourhoods have poor coverage. The Canada Line improved this a bit and Broadway extension will help a bit more, but it still won't be like Montreal.
