You'll feel right at home in vibrant, expansive Edmonton. The historic Old Strathcona district has a neighborhood feel, while Whyte Avenue leads to the University of Alberta and its youthful crowd. A short drive outside town is the North Saskatchewan River valley. But Edmonton's most famous attraction is the West Edmonton Mall, boasting 800 shops plus an indoor roller coaster and water park. Seriously.

uh...the North Saskatchewan River Valley is right in the middle of town actually. Someone care to get that fixed?

EDIT** I would, but the site doesn't want to load for me

It sort of lost its credibility when I saw Niagara Falls at the top of the list.

But I guess having Edmonton on the list is a victory in and of itself as well as not seeing Calgary there. Although I guess by default Calgary is present because of Banff.

Whoever wrote up that short bit about Edmonton has obviously never been to Edmonton. Or even seen a map of Edmonton.
