Absolutely ! Except on exceptional cases.
The ferries are following the icebreakers all day long.

Montreal, Edmonton, and Winnipeg skylines might as well be 70's Russian skylines... i kid i kid.

Toronto and Vancouver skylines are breathtaking, Calgary is a good smaller mix of the 2...everything else pales in comparison, even though they have their charms as well.

Lol, how ignorant are you... I bet you're just talking out of your ass from your computer and have never been to either of those three cities.

I'm sorry if I have offended anybody, I'm just stating things off of what I see. Canadian cities outside of Vancouver, Toronto, and Calgary also have their charms like I said earlier but it takes some very good photographers to make their skylines look good. That doesnt mean that they arent quality cities to live in though. I appreciate people taking time out of their day to post pictures but if you have to look hard to find something good in a skyline then just admit that it isnt that great lol.

The voice of reason speaking here... it's just 1 persons OPINION. Please don't let that detract from the rest of you having a nice day.
