Tourism  
Vancouver is Canada's emerald jewel. It's simply a beautiful place to be: From downtown you can see the blue-green Pacific Ocean, as well as glacial fjords and steep mountains capped with snow and covered in dense old-growth forest. The other reason we love Vancouver is because of its multicultural flair. The city has long been a home to people from all over the globe, especially from China and other parts of Asia.
