Vancouver Sun: Readers of Condé Nast Traveler magazine have voted Vancouver the 'Best City in the Americas' at their annual Readers' Choice Awards ceremony held in New York... Vancouver won the top spot over Buenos Aires, Argentina and Quebec City...
The poll divides cities into six specific geographical divisions including the Americas... Cities are scored on ambience, friendliness, culture and sites, restaurants, lodging, and shopping, to give a final ranking.
This award is at the top of a long list of accolades that Vancouver has received in recent years including being named the world's most liveable city by the Economist Intelligence Unit, and North America's top destination for international meetings by the International Congress & Convention Association. Vancouver was previously named 'Best City in the Americas' by Condé Nast Traveler readers in 2004, 2005 and 2006.
