"Beautiful British Columbia." There is an optional slogan, "The Best Place on Earth," but it's not as popular as you might think. "The Best Place on Earth" slogan came from the Olympic plates that were created to promote and fund the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. These license plates may not be as popular because they were only sold for a limited number of years (production and sale will stop in 2012), and they also cost an extra sum of money to purchase these specialized plates. B.C.'s provincial slogan is slowly and by popular demand going back to "Super, Natural British Columbia."

That depends on what the traveller is looking for. It's like asking if a certain movie is overrated. Everyone looks for something different in a travel destination. Vancouver is clean, huge, multicultural and stunningly gorgeous. It offers just about every sports and leisure activity you could want. Skiing, windsurfing, hiking, world-class dining, theatre, concerts, whale watching, fishing, festivals, and even a legal nude beach. The greater Vancouver area has about 1.5 million people and is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and ocean islands. The people (by American standards) are polite. The best time to travel is from May to the end of September. Vancouver gets very little snow in the winter but many days of rain.
