Vancouver people aren't as friendly and open as in other parts of Canada. Of course there will be people, but as a rule there is the Seattle/Vancouver freeze, where they are just cold shoulder types.

The island, or up Sechelt coast is much friendlier.

It was a culture shift coming from Ontario where people were quite welcoming. You can sat hello directly to a Vancouverites face and they will look through you.

A friend of mine lived in a Vancouver apartment for years, and people were super cold. He lost his shit after a few years, when he's walking to the elevator and the person sees him a few steps away and hits the close button. Probably not a great response but went off like " I see you everyday, you know me, and you know I live here and your just going to close the door and make me wait 5 more minutes while elevator hits all the other floors. Wtf is wrong with you."

My wife and I play a game when we go for a walk, we take in turns saying hello to those passing on the sidewalk in a suburb...and see who gets snubbed the most.

I'm so sick of him, I wish every country would just band together and boycott trading with the USA till trumps admin resigna. Sure we'd suffer to but putting up with this guy is too much headache. And he's not going away.

We are at companies that have daily meetings to see how the tarrifs are affecting orders, supplies and pending deliveries. The amount of time wasted by departments is ridiculous.

Not sure that's why I asked

I'm not sure what you are saying. Its not Materialist its Material Scientist, they study the science of materials and get a diploma in Materials Science, and the job is called Materials Scientist. Its basically Math, chemistry and metalurgial sciences rolled I into one discipline. Thus the link I posted, here's another https://materials.princeton.edu/education/undergraduate/what-materials-science
