I've always thought it would be great if there was city data for canadian cities too, especially for comparing things like climate, crime etc. Is there a reason why Canada is not covered? Even if the major metropolitan areas were covered in detail, in the same city data format, then that would be great.

I know there's a section on World Cities, but it is not in an easily-comparable format to US cities, and is more wordy, rather than directly comparable facts on weather, crime, jobs etc.

Any thoughts??

Why no subforums for Canadian provinces?

We've looked at it and it's a possibility for the future, but it's not a simple thing to add it.

I kind of like the idea too. Perhaps we could start with something easier, like just the Provinces, and then gradually expand to the larger metro areas (Canada only has about a dozen major metro areas in the entire country).
