Ranks of Canadian cities in Global Livability Index 2022

Three cities of Canada received top ranks in the Global Livability Index 2022. Calgary and Zurich in combination received the third rank. Calgary left Zurich behind in the case of infrastructure and education while Zurich has left Calgary behind in the case of culture and environment. The fifth spot was taken over by Vancouver and the eighth rank was given to Toronto. The rank of these cities slipped because of the restrictions of the pandemic. In 2021, Toronto got 20^th rank.
