- Edmonton is a great city! Edmonton is the capital city of Alberta and is the northernmost city with over one million people on the continent. There are a lot of things that make Edmonton an interesting city to me that I'm excited to share in this video. In this video I briefly cover Edmonton's history, population, skyline as well as a few things that make it unique. Thanks for watching: Edmonton Overview | An informative introduction to Edmonton, Alberta.
CORRECTIONS
- Edmonton was named City of Champions due to the volunteer response to a tornado in 1987. The sporting success in the 1980s may have helped contribute to that nickname though.

As a Brit who lived in Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary for work, I must say Edmonton is a very underrated city. A lot of people seem to think Calgary is better but I enjoyed living there more. Good community feel, very affordable for a major city and has everything you would expect in a major urban centre. Great hockey team and fans as well. I would put it top 3 for best food in Canada too. I miss Alberta.
Edmonton has some of the best, if not the best donair spots in Canada
@@alexanderstark5192 yeah the food there was amazing tbh
As someone who lived in Edmonton and went back for a visit, the city is very run down and dirty
@@waynek7953 weird because I travel there frequently…are you sure you weren’t looking at construction…because the city is constantly upgrading and developing.
@Richard Brown no it was the filth and the obvious poverty. I felt safer in East van
Moved from Toronto to Edmonton last year. Edmonton definitely has a cold and long winter temperature-wise, but it is sunny all year round. Snow-storm is surprisingly rare, fogs none, rain rare, even cloudy days are rare. This is what I love most about this city.
What areas are good to live? NW, SW etc?
@@mirjan86 I recommend SW. Relatively new area so the facilities and housing are more modernized. Has all the essentials and is pretty close to South Commons. It is one of the safer neighbourhoods of the city.
@@mirjan86 Anywhere but north
As a life long edmontonian, you are in for a ride lol, this past winter was the most mild weve had
Emigrated to Canada, while others were rushing to Toronto, I choose Edmonton. Haven't regretted it one bit. It' feels like home now. I will rep it forever.
Does it have mosque facilities for muslims?
@@ZainabKhan-pb8pb have 5 around that I can walk to in less than 10 minutes. Halal food easily available in all grocery stores and lots and lots of halal restaurant, pakistani, indian, italian, bangla, jamaican south korean, everything halal. No issues and fantastic and strong muslim community
@@safifaruqi thank you. Can i find out abit more plz. Do u have insta or something ?
@@ZainabKhan-pb8pb the first mosque in north america was built in Edmonton in the 30's
No go away
Skyline wise, during the day the skyline may appear grey, but at night time and especially sunset the skyline is absolutely stunning. The buildings and infrastructures colours start to come out. Words can’t describe how beautiful a sunset is on Walterdale Hill.
In my opinion the best skyline views of Edmonton are from the park beside McNally highschool!
The natural stone color of the skyline, especially the Telus building and it's neighbor, is great. It blends in nicely with the river valley below it and the sky above it, as you mentioned it changes colors with the lighting in a way that reminds me of the mountains.
@@lucblanchard4116 or strathearn
@@lucblanchard4116Hahaha!!! Yeah that’s a great place to see the skyline. Especially during the Sunset
Skyline from Sask Dr is unbeatable but I think the view from the northside (blatchford area) looking south is super underrated too.
I love this city, it has been my home for 65 years. Some people don't see the beaty ofy city, i do. Culture, venues, festivals , sports teatre food scene,, museum, arts , our gorgeous river valley, muttard conservatory, government center. I can go on and on. Pity some people don't appreciate what we have. Edmontonian are the best, friendly, helpfull and ready to be there when people needs arise
Thats my city, my hometown that I love so.
Moved from Toronto to Edmonton 9 months ago. Super underrated city. One thing you didn't mention is how the people here are the friendliest in the country (only rivaled with the Maritimes). Whenever I go to Calgary, I get the same cold and shallow cooperate vibes I get when I lived in Toronto. In Edmonton (for the most part) you feel like you're in a "small town" of 1.4 million people and the communities here seem less "keeping up with the Jones" and more family oriented. Not that I dislike Calgary or Toronto. They're just more hustle and bustle type cities, whereas Edmonton gives you time to smell the roses. Great video!
Thank you!
When they ram that blue mop through your ears....does it hurt? You never seent he good side of Toronto...
If Alberta were the good people how do you explain the high crime rate in Canada ? Destroying the planet fossil fuels , wants to separate from Canada and you like guns like the far west
@@CharlesReece-nr2wr triggered. It's true Toronto is a cold unwelcoming city. I was disappointed in the coldness of everyone. Everyone was to themselves there and like most big cities has an air of shallowness.
Well Matt lived there twice on the company dime...crap holes both Calgary and Edmonton. However If I moved from the great place like TO to Edmonton I would tell everyone it is unicorns and rainbows....have you walked at night down town, looked for help from a cop or had to get healthcare....crow your stories elsewhere...Alberta is a hellhole unless you are white and wealthy...
As a born Edmontonian, you couldn’t have displayed this city any better. You covered it extremely well. I live in Calgary now but I always miss Edmonton.
Thank you!!
Hey there! I wonder what was the reason behind moving to Calgary from Edmonton. I mean Edmonton is the best, right?!
@@MrBuckeye401 Work. My employer had a job for me to run in Calgary and paid for all my expenses.
Hey Sorensenator86
Edmonton is amazing. And strangely underrated and known even amongst Canadians. Part of that is because it used to be a lot smaller, but has grown faster. Whereas Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal have been major metros for a century.
Some fun facts:
-youngest big city in Canada
-only city with more millennials than Boomers.
-used to be smaller than Hamilton and Winnipeg but in the last 50 years has become more than twice both of their sizes. (Although Hamilton is now growing faster).
-Highest number of university students per capita of all big cities in canada.
-2nd most days of sun of all cities
-highest income to cost of living ratio in canada for cities.
-Greener than Calgary, and an actually good hockey team too 😉
My partner is born in Edmonton and was always saying how horrible and ugly this city is, but every time i see it online or trough this type of videos it just looking beautiful to me. We live in Vancouver right now and it is stunning city but considering how expansive is compared to other cities, i think it just not worth living in, I would definitely like to visit Edmonton one day.
@@markospas a lot of people from Edmonton actually just live in ugly sprawling suburbs and never experience the city beyond the arterial roads and strip malls in their cookie cutter neighborhoods. People who live centrally and enjoy the river valley, food scene, and know how to make the most of winter have a great time. There’s a lot to love about our city. It’s got lots to work on still, but with its affordability, anyone hating on it is just choosing to be negative. People who say Edmonton is boring are wrong. They’re just boring people and will be bored wherever they live. They’ll just pay twice as much for it.
@@joshthompson80 Edmonton is one of the best cities in North America to live in if you can tolerate the sometimes harsh winters. It's cheaper than Calgary for sure and still only a 4 hour drive from the heart of the mountains! The city is also self sufficient being located where they are and it's reasonably safe ! A great place to raise a family and a lot of people who move there for work end up staying permanently, and there's always a strong job market there !!
Used to be…. Take a trip on the LRT and it isn’t so amazing. The city really needs to clean it up. It’s really quite sad to see. Heart breaking 💔 actually
Calgary is younger then Edmonton..
I moved from Vancouver to Edmonton, and it's one of the best decisions I ever made.
Could you describe why?
@TaufiqSafdar Vancouver is an overwhelmingly expensive city with low wages. It's too crowded for my tastes, and has low-quality schools.
Edmonton is superior on all of those points.
Really? No way man lol
I had the amazing experience of living in Edmonton for 6 years. From 1990 to 1996. I was there for yet another win of the Stanley Cup and was blessed enough to touch it as they brought it through the crowd at the airport. I also worked at West Edmonton Mall. Amazing place highly recommend it for you bucket list. The waterpark there was a blast so many good memories. And I also was able to see the Northern Lights many times. So many amazing festivals. Especially enjoyed the Fringe and the Sour Dough Raft Race during Klondike Days. One big water fight on the North Saskatchewan River. The only bad memory I have of Edmonton is the -40 degree weather you can get in the mid winter. But other than that great memories and highly recommend this city. It is also one of the cleanest cities and friendliest cities in Canada :)
Edmonton has a fascinating history. One of the reasons why it was selected as the capital (and why it got the University) over Calgary was because of Alexander Rutherford, Alberta’s first Premier. He owned a lot of land in Strathcona (just across the river from Edmonton and now a part of Edmonton) and lived there.
That’s really interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Alberta equal fossil fuels killing the planet , conservative people and guns from the far west
Another part of that story I think is interesting is the political differences between the cities; Edmonton being usually more liberal (to varying degrees) and Calgary being quite conservative likely played a role since Liberal PM Wilfred Laurier had been elected the year before Alberta entered confederation and you’ll conclude who voted for him…
@@seamusmuldrew5623 While that may be true today, the conservatives in Alberta only won 2 of the 25 seats in the first provincial election with the rest going to the Liberals. The Conservatives only won High River and Rosebud, not Calgary. And yes, many in the west voted for Laurier in the West starting in the 1896 Federal Election because of dissatisfaction with Eastern Canada and the Conservative government’s National Policy which they felt was exploitative.
I am an Edmontonian born and raised. Proud to be Edmontonian. Love this city. It is beautiful. Central Park NY is a distant second to Edmonton's River Valley for largest urban green area.
Stanley Park is bigger then Central Park, and much prettier then the Edmonton River Valley.
@@Tripp2Deuce I am originally from Edmonton and know both cities inside and out.. Stanley Park is one fifth larger than Central Park and on the ocean with a 28 km. seawall that you can use year round. How's that River Valley on the banks of the frozen Saskatchewan river in winter Champ? At least there are no mosquitos then, so there's that. LOL You're so dumb I bet you voted for Danielle Smith. Go Oilers Go.🤡
@@Tripp2Deuce google is your friend. Get your facts straight. You're wrong on all counts.
@@Tripp2Deuce With age comes wisdom Grasshopper.
Worth pointing out the skyline is much smaller then it could have been due to the old airport that used to sit along kingsway . When looking on a sat map you can still see the footprint of the airport
That’s really interesting. Thanks for pointing that out!
@@CityGeek the city centre airport shut down sometime in the last 10 years and that’s when the cities 2 new tallest towers were built since the height limits were lifted
Edmonton had the City Centre Airport that operated until a decade ago.
Until 2013 the tallest building allowed was less than 150 metres.
It is actually not small. Our skyline is stretched elongated . Add the university area, it would look bigger.
@@timothychung4811 Ya I always say this to people. Edmonton's downtown along it's main street, which is Jasper Avenue, is stretched out between **about** 95th street and 125th street, with many high rise buildings that if plucked in the downtown core would look very impressive and dense!
I lived in Edmonton for over 25 years before moving to Calgary for work. Edmonton had only had 30-ish story buildings because of it's proximity to the municipal airport. Buildings couldn't be taller than an airplane's glide slope. Now that the airport is closed, super tall skyscrapers are now possible. It's taken the city a while to finally build something tall. Unlike Calgary which has a height limit that results in buildings reaching the maximum height. I expect Edmonton will be getting taller buildings in the future, where as Calgary is unlikely to change it's height rules.
Thanks for featuring my hometown. Proud to be Edmontonian!
Keep these coming, please. Always a treat when one drops.
Thank you! I’ll try to get the next one out quicker!
Thank you! I’ve lived in both Calgary and Edmonton and hail from eastern Canada. The city of Edmonton is pure gold. Off to Elk Island for some birdwatching. Cheers! 🙏🏾
Which one better?
The River Valley is so deep that you don't even see the tip of the 70 storey Stantec Tower in lots of areas in the River Valley right on the edge of downtown. Feels like you're in the wilderness not near any urban area when you're right next to downtown in some parts.
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you. I'm in Edmonton for a month and I wanted to see all the sites. I'm going to all these places now.
It has a nice vibe now between downtown and Whyte Av. Also very nice with the river valley. I enjoyed my last visit. Found some cool breweries downtown.
Yea! Another Canadian city! Edmonton looks beautiful by any standard. It’s great to see two such beautiful cities in one western province. I love that art museum inspired by the Northern Lights. Very cool. Keep on posting. You were gone for a spell so I was getting a bit worried about you. You have so many more great cities awaiting your talented videography! 🥇⭐️🏆🥳🏙
Thanks so much!! I was worried when I hadn’t seen a comment from you 😉 I’m hoping to get back to posting more consistently. I appreciate the encouragement and support!
I’ve lived in Edmonton my whole life, & the thing I like about it is that it’s a big city with a small town feel. It’s easy to talk to people & if you need directions or anything, someone will help you . Plus, it’s quite safe for a large city.
Have you ever been downtown? Lol ya wonderful place...
Finally, my favorite Canadian City!
You mean your english canadian city of the far west with a high one of the highest crime rate and carbon print destroying the planet
I have been to Edmonton 6 times,soon to be 7 in September this year, as I have a friend there and it hosts a big Sci fi convention every September. It is a nice city.I have lived in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Kelowna, but only visited Calgary,Edmonton and Vancouver, Vancouver the most as my brother lives there.All these cities have many interesting sights to visit.
Moved from Calgary to Edmonton 15 years back, and no regret so far. It is a great city to raise family.
nice seeing my city get mentioned!!
That was a great overview of Edmonton!
Thank you!!
Thanks for covering my home city!
I lived in Edmonton for the last 10 years, the city has developed, and so many things changed. One I hate about it is the harsh winter 🥶.
Can you tell me about the job opportunities
@@muntaserrahman8541 there’s many opportunities in Edmonton depending what you looking for.
Edmonton is also home to the 3rd Canadian Division HQ, know as CFB Edmonton. This in one of the largest Canadian Army bases in Canada. Edmonton also served as a backup landing site for the NASA space shuttle. Edmonton also has a Broad Pedway system of tunnels and bridges that connect much of the downtown core so pedestrians dont have to go outside in the winter. Edmonton is an amalgamation of the cities of Edmonton, city of Strathcona and the town of Beverly, all seperate at one point. We also have River boats, Ski Hills, and near by beaches. Just to name a few other interesting points. Video could have been many times longer, You only scratched the surface
Wdym "pedway"??? I live here there is no underground stuff unless ur talking about the LRT?
Awesome vid friend, we moved to Mexico from Edmonton Albert in Oct 2021. Edmonton Alberta was good to us. 💖✌🏽
Great video on Edmonton, we lived there for over 24 years and its architecture has become very impressive. It's a great city.
Thank you!
Moving to downtown Edmonton in a few months, super excited!
Sorry to say but Downtown Edmonton is horrible, a place full of homeless drug addicts with very few normal human beings walking the downtown Streets, most unsafe place of Edmonton
Glad to have you. Welcome toy city.
Love my city, Edmonton! Great video. :)
Thank you!!
As a former Calgarian who now calls Edmonton home for 15 year's now. Excellent video. You showed Edmonton in a great light. Thank you 😊
Thanks!!
As a former Edmontonian I like how you captured the beauty of the city in the summer time. The winter time is a different story lol. Also majority of people drive pick up trucks. You see more pick up trucks compared to a Corolla or civic lol
Also mini vans and SUV's ! Edmontonians have gotten smart when it comes to winter driving and perhaps think that driving a bigger vehicle with winter tires is safer and easier to handle in the snow and on the ice? I switched from a car to SUV for that exact reason!!
Majority pickups is factually untrue haha. But yes, we have lots. Partially due to winter, industrial economy, and laws that enable it.
More pickups? Umm...no. An Alberta survey said only 21% of Albertans drove pickups and its even lower in Calgary and Edmonton. One can easily drive around town and see it's not even close to being the case.
Haha there are a lot of pickups but that’s not true, Edmonton is probably the city with the least pickups in Alberta actually.
From Alberta, big Oil fan, been to Edmonton countless times, just now convinced that it's very underrated.
Oil fan is a-big fan of destroying the planet , guns , the far west like in Texas
Wow this city looks so nice! Must be so underrated!
Thanks for this video bro! Awesome 👌
Thank you! 🙏
Great video, lots of cool info here about my city! Small correction, however: Edmonton took on the moniker "City of Champions" because of the amount of volunteers that came out to help people recover after the Black Friday tornado in '87. The Sports stuff helped contribute to it though, as they were winning both the Stanley Cup and Grey Cup (CFL Championship) pretty regularly.
Thanks for pointing that out! I'll make a correction in my video description.
I lived in Edmonton for the first 17 years of my life and have a bit of a love/hate relationship with it. I have many fond memories growing up there and it's such an active vibrant city...during the summer. The winters are, well...absolutely brutal. I could tell stories that would chill you to the bone, no pun intended. It's the reason I would never consider moving back there.
The other thing that's kind of a bummer about Edmonton is that it's very remote so it's kind of a pain to live there if you like to travel a lot.
It's a fun town though, lots to see and do, just avoid it between October and April lol
I’m from Montreal, lived in Calgary before, but didn’t get the chance to check out Edmonton although I’ve heard good things about it.
And this video just made me book a flight for a 3 days getaway. Didn’t know where to go, thanks 😅
Nice to see my city get some attention
Wow great video on Edmonton. I wanna visit one day, Canadian cities always amazes me. Clean & beautiful.
Thank you!
Yes, if you take photos right after heavy rain, and from a distance.
I live in Edmonton. It’s not that clean. It’s a big city
Really cool as usual!!
Thank you!!
Great video I hope to visit or relocate to Edmonton one day. You should do a video on Anchorage or my home town of Fairbanks! Just any Alaskan city would scratch my itch lol
Thank you!! I’ll definitely do one of Anchorage at some point 😊
That indoor bungee 😮 whaaaat
Gòod vid, should do Fort Mac and Lethbridge next
Cheers
This is my home city. Born and raised here. It’s cool to see someone who isn’t Canadian cover my city, and you using km’s instead of miles. It’s more blue collar than Calgary, which is white collar. Alberta is considered Texas of the North
Another great "Meet..." video!
Thanks!!
Wow, I always imagined Edmonton to be grim and kind of dirty. Granted, I've only been there 3 times for work and left so that wasn't a fair assessment at all. This video totally changes my perception of the city. I'll have to take a proper trip this summer for sure now that I live in Calgary.
You would be wise to trust your original perception. Edmonton is a disgusting, rotting, crime ridden, miserable city that doesn’t come close to Calgary. You can have a pretty fun day or even weekend at the west Ed but there is nothing special about the rest of the city, and it’s not a safe and enjoyable place to explore. Watching a high definition compilation of pretty buildings and tourist attractions from a guy who’s never even been there should not change your perception on anything regarding that shit hole.
You imagined correctly
I was there last Summer and was impressed. Lots of cool breweries, places to eat. It had a nice feel and am saying that as a Torontonian
You must have been in the north part of the city
@@btech918 if you really think so, you must not have any friends, or go out often, or both
Wow that’s a nice city
Thanks! I choice Edmonton home, never regret
it's a dated city stopped booming since 1980. you can tell by visiting the Jasper Avenue. crime rate is quite high.
Great video
Thank you!!
A quick correction, Edmonton is the 5th largest metro area not 6th, and Quebec City is around 7th or 8th as Ottawa behind Edmonton.
As a Montrealer I would really appreciate to see a video about Montreal.
Taste of Edmonton and k days were some of my favourite event to go to in Edmonton when I was a kid
Good job! Edmonton is a great place to live.
I live in Ontario and at the point in my life now it seems that perhaps western Canada would be a better place for me to live, I could liquidate a smaller property here and buy a larger property overlooking the rockies in Alberta if I wanted to, the natural beauty in western Canada is unrivalled. I could continue my work over there as well, but its leaving family that's hard but I think of past ancestors who left Europe for a better more prosperous life in Canada.
Can't see the rockies from Edmonton. Just Calgary.
@@Tribuneoftheplebs Well I mentioned Alberta, no city in particular.
Possible, but property overlooking the rockies is big, big bucks now, especially around Calgary. I remember when Canmore was affordable. Not anymore. Perhaps if you were west of Edmonton in the Hinton area. Very beautiful but fairly isolated. On the plus side it's not far from the National Park and Jasper is a great little resort town not too far away.
@@danbaumann8273 thanks for the ideas. I live west of edmonton so ill look into that
@@Tribuneoftheplebs Well, I'll be. So do I.
Love Edmonton
❤ Edmonton
Awesome job! I like the comparison numbers to U.S cities
Thank you!
Wow you just gained a follower and I really love to move to Alberta I might not live in Edmonton but might live in Airdrie 🥰
Thank you!
Would love to see you cover Hamilton, Ontario. Such an underrated city with a bunch of character.
I’ll add it to the list. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hamilton is among the most dangerous city in Canada according to statistics Canada in 2022 and getting worst even in Toronto
Thank you for a great video! I always learn a lot.
If you're doing Canada then why not Mexico too? I am less familiar with their cities than I am with Canada's.
Thank you!! Yeah I’m sure I’ll make some videos on cities in Mexico down the road 😊
Beautiful city 🍀Greetings to uncles and aunts to cousin and cousin and to their children
Thinking about moving from Toronto to Edmonton so I am watching videos about the city
Great Job
Thanks!
A fair balanced view of the AB capital city. Like its Southern rival, Big E is growing and very vibrant economically. Alberta is fortunate to have two great urban choices.
Nice video
I recently moved to MN and would be interested to see a video on Duluth!
I live in Minnesota too so Duluth is on my list 😊
Would love to see your take on Winnipeg CA!!!!
Thanks!! It’s on the list of cities to cover 😊
Could you do a video on Lexington, KY? It's not a huge city but it has a ton of unique qualities
Absolutely!
Just a correction, the city of championship isn't to do with sports, although is a very common mistake. It's to do with the people and how they heroically helped each other in times of crisis particularly referring to a tornado in the 80s. It just coinsided with the Elks and Oilers winning streaks, which is why there is the confusion.
Correction,the Elks haven't won anything, especially recently,although they could be given the chicken award for changing their name .
@alex35agm I'm not even a CFL fan because let's be real, it's a rip off of a rip off of an actual sport. That's said, those 14 titles are apparently nothing. Good to know.
Also not the point of my comment to rile some child, so I'd appreciate you removing you comment for to keep the point propper
Is there a way to get on top of the CN tower or the Stantec building to get a view?
As someone that lives in Edmonton, I love this city, it can just get way too cold sometimes. Outside of that though, perfect size and place to raise kids.
A nice shot of downtown Edmonton is looking east from west on northside of downtown juat north of 104 ave.
Wilmington, Delaware isn't a big city, but it's the largest city in my state. I'd love to see your take on it!
Yeah I actually used to live about 45 minutes from Wilmington so I’ll definitely make a video on it down the road 😊
Im from Edmonton I was waiting for this video to come out ever since the Calgary one came out lmao
You did a good job and while you can't mention everything, three defining features of Edmonton that you didn't mention were Refinery Row on the east side, the views and recreation opportunities of the wide river valley, and the weather.
I have lived in Edmonton several times and much prefer it to Calgary. The best thing in Calgary are the mountains which - of course - are an hour's drive away.
Thanks for the informative comment!
In addition to the Edmonton Oilers, Edmonton is home to several other sports teams, such as Edmonton Elks, of the CFL, FC Edmonton of the CPL, and Edmonton Stingers of the CEBL.
Riverhawks and Oil Kings as well
Its Edmonton Eskimos!
I moved back here from Vancouver. Best thing I ever did!
Nice very Nice
As a Vancouverite I was like "OMG I'm going to have so much fun bashing Edmonton," but it was good video
Lol, thanks!
@@CityGeek when are u doing a video on Vancouver ❤
Vancouver sucks, lived there for 34 years.
Thanks for making great videos and not using stock whatever footage that isn't even in the cities.
Thank you! And yes those kind of geography videos always bothered me so I try my best to get actual footage of what I am describing.
@@CityGeek thank you, and thank you for actually trying to figure out how to pronounce the local names used. It always give me a chill when some bloke with a know-it-all attitude destroys the pronunciation and then these reactors just perpetuate their mistakes.
West Edmonton mall is my favorite part of Edmonton and i also remember getting lost at elk Island park 😂
Please make a video of Winnipeg!
Most underrated city in Canada!
First.
Ok, *I did not* expect to see you here.
@@DioTheGreatOne I'm everywhere.
@@JerryRigEverything I knew it, you are God.

Looks nice there I never been to Canada.
Great video! What software do you use to edit your vids?
Thank you!! I’m cheap so I just use iMovie right now
@@CityGeek me too but still can't get my vids to look like that. Need some practice. But keep up the great work :)
@@slidedeckfinance Thank you!! Good luck with your videos!
Lived here all my life. You can still pan gold in Gold Bar creek.. to this day, I can pull $50 out of the dirt in an afternoon. If you come to Edmonton, you really need to take a walk through the river valley. Unless you're not into nature, then I guess you could hit up the mall....
Do Thunder Bay next! 😂😂
Lol I may add it to the list
4:27 interior of this mall reminds me of Russia's GUM, especially the arching ceiling.
Lived there for good number of years, where my first son was born. Loved it. Winter is brutal but it is "dry cold" comparing with East Coast cities. Living cost is low, and income is comparably higher. So overall, for small mid-class family who want both low cost living & metro city vibe, Edmonton could be a good option. Calgary is definitely better, but Edmonton has its uniqueness and character.
My father did some of the metalwork on the Art gallery
You forgot the 97st bat. Iconic.
