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

Thank you for that useful comment!! I'm sure no one in Montreal, Edmonton and Winnipeg takes this personally...

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.

Aaaaand here we go again!

scrapin · #**2997** Posted **Nov 28, 2014, 4:15 AM**

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.
