census metropolitan areas and agglomerations in Canada
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_census_metropolitan_areas_and_agglomerations_in_Canada#List
https://pbs.twimg.com/card_img/1509259479791161352/OK3fePFT?format=jpg&name=small As of 2022, Vancouver only has 2 residential towers that are just over 60 stories. However, no office tower has ever been permitted to have a 40th floor. That's not the case in Calgary & Seattle, because they aren't under any Vancouver height restrictions. Yet, Vancouver has the highest land costs in Canada.
