[council] Welcome back to Canada!

[Ross Rader]

I all of you attending next week have a safe and uneventful trip. I 
thought it would be interesting for you to be able to check out some 
interesting facts about Vancouver, one of Canada's great cities.

"Vancouver consistently ranks in the top five in worldwide rankings of 
quality of life. Most recently, the city ranked first (2002, 2005) in a 
worldwide quality of life survey conducted by the Economist Intelligence 
Unit. In a similar survey by Mercer Human Resource Consulting, Vancouver 
ranked second (2002, 2003) and third (2004). Vancouver has tied for 
first with the cities of Salzburg and Oslo among the UN chosen cities 
for highest living standards the last 4 years running. The city 
generally ranks first when compared to its Canadian and U.S. peers."

Please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vancouver for a *ton* of 
interesting and useful information about this wonderful part of Canada.

If anyone has any questions, please let me know!

Warm regards,
