When the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games roll into town in 2010, there’ll be no shortage of jaw-dropping visuals, instantly inspiring people around the world to check out Canada’s immigration procedures.

But beyond the breathtaking snowcapped crags, city-hugging beaches and dense waterfront forests lies a comparatively young metropolis that’s still trying to discover its true identity - less than 150 years after a ’gassy’ Englishman rowed in and kicked it all offwith a makeshift pub.
