I found Edmonton nice when I spent a couple of months there last winter on a commercial boiler room job. The thing that gets me is how flat it is excepting the river valley, not much topography. You can barely see anything from a distance; it reminds me a lot of Winnipeg that way. The plywood plant smells nice, love that smell of spruce being sliced up.
Calgary's home though, can't knock me for having a favorite. Its like Mom's cooking (at least if your Mom can cook, that is)
I like the back and forth ribbing, but I'm not down with it when people have serious contempt or a major superiority complex about where they're from. Or nations, when anywhere claims to be the best place in the world its never true, everywhere has something that's great & unique.
