Vancouver named worlds most livable city again!

Meg-san

Celebrations to those living in Vancouver! We've been named the world's most livable city according to the Economist for the fifth year in a row!
Toronto was also named the world's fifth most livable city.
Algiers was ranked the lowest (where is Algiers anyways??)

Here's the (brief) article:

And here's the list:

What do you guys think? Do you agree with the rankings (not just Canadian cities but other cities also)?

Algiers is in algeria.

Good a canadian city made it on hah, i wonder what calgary was. Probably in the middle. I remeber it being named the cleanest city in the world. Neutral

^Really? I thought Singapore was the cleanest place because they have REALLY strict laws against things like littering (you can't even chem gum it's illegal).

^^Vancouver's made it as #1 five years in a row - not that surprising, really.

Then again, what with the DTES (Downtown Eastside) getting worse (poorest postal code in North America), I *am* a bit surprised.
