Vancouver and Hamilton: So much alike, yet different somehow

Ex-Vancouverite, now Hamiltonian Nicholas Kevlahan compares the two Canadian cities:

At first glance it might seem absurd to compare Vancouver and Hamilton. After all, Vancouver is a dense, vibrant city that is the economic and cultural centre of its region and province. However, the two cities are actually remarkably similar in population and both have well-defined geographic constraints.

And then, of course, Nicholas details all the policy and pragmatic differences that make thse cities such contrasting places.  Very comprehensive, nicely illustrated and linked – and some helpful conclusions at the end.  It’s all here.
