Why Vancouver
Home to the 2010 Winter Olympics, Vancouver is big enough to offer world-class events, but small enough to provide safe and friendly hospitality.
Vancouver is truly an international city whose people share a love for spectacular sea-to-sky mountains, ocean views, outdoor recreation activities and international dining.
It is just a few hours away from the world renowned ski and snowboarding resort of Whistler-Blackcomb.
Also nearby are Victoria on Vancouver Island, and Seattle in the US – all great for weekend trips! |
