But Are They Kidding?

"Moneysense" has listed the 200 best places to live in Canada, and Vancouver residents were surprised to find their city ranked fifty-second, somewhere between Horsefly and Spuzzum. Which city made the coveted Number One spot? Calgary.

We thought at first this might be a gag, something like "The  Onion" declaring Kim Jong-Un the sexiest man alive in 2012. But then we thought, no, a magazine/website that calls itself "Moneysense" probably does not have a sense of humor.

Many readers believe the "Moneysense" staff should pay some penalty for telling trusting readers in Fort Chimo and Povungnituk that the best place to live is Calgary. A suitable penalty, we believe, would be six months. In Calgary.
