I've been to all though Canada (even the rural parts) I've been to California. Canada is more scenic, end of story.
I guess all those thousands of people who gaze in awe at Yosemite, the bay, Lake Tahoe, etc. every year should realize their experiences are "unimpressive" in the eyes of a Mr. Sputnikkk. rofl

I've never been to Canada so I won't vote. However, I think its pretty safe to say that CA wins these categories:
You can't compare a state of about 450,000 km2 to a country bigger than the US. Per acre I think California beats Canada pretty easily, as much as Canada is pretty flat, but I think the Canadian Rockies, especially as you get to Yukon and northern B.C. (e.g. St. Elias range area) probably surpass or equal the Sierras in scenic-ness, but it's in the eye of the beholder as well. Either way I think Alaska has them both beat!

Hey I'm not the one who made this thread. Take it up with the OP lol.
Tie. I like Canadian cities better since they're cleaner and more vibrant because it's cross between Europe and U.S.. The walking culture in Canada is alive and well unlike U.S.. I like California weather more. As for scenery, it's a tie.
Like I've said, California DOES NOT compare to Canada when it comes to scenery. Canada just blows California out of the water in that aspect. Natural AND man made.
After touring Canada, CA is remarkably unimpressive. Not to mention San Francisco is a compete dump compared to Vancouver. In addition to Vancouver being far cleaner and more beautiful, it isn't surrounded by ghetto cesspools like Oakland and Richmond. Godforsaken places like that are unheard of in Canada which is a very safe and civilized place.

Yes they are. In the real world people compare small sized countries like Japan to places like China that are vastly large or so.
California has variations in climate and scenery. It has deserts, valleys, canyons, beaches, mountains, hills, and so much more. And hell economically its larger than Canada and more populated. This is comparable.

Something tells me you've never been to the "ghetto cesspool" of Oakland.
