73. Vancouver: A Field Guide Local legends disclose little-known facts, share varying perspectives, and profile the people who keep Vancouver’s heart beating at this panel event centred on the city we call home. We’ve all heard that Vancouver is one of North America’s most expensive cities, but Steve Burgess offers his philosophy for living well on a budget, along with localized practical tips, in Cheapskate in Lotusland. Journalist Christopher Cheung’s Very Vancouver takes us beneath the surface of the “city of glass,” revealing how real families, businesses, and individuals are making a home in this beautiful and challenging place. Justin McElroy offers a different take in Searching for the Best Place on Earth: seeking a fresh vantage point, he visited fifty-two countries in fifty-two weeks to see how Vancouver truly compares on the world stage. Moderated by Sam Wiebe, the author of Shot in Vancouver, a history of Vancouver’s film industry. Presented in partnership with the Magazine Association of BC.
