温哥华作为加拿大最贵的城市，相信没有人会提出质疑。但是在最新出炉的2014年世界生活最贵城市排行榜中，温哥华排在世界最贵城市排行榜中的第96位。在去年的世界最贵城市的排行中，温哥华是排在第64位的，其排名下降与美元兑换加币价格下跌和通货膨胀是有很大的关联的。
除了温哥华以外，加拿大其他的城市也同样入围这个排行榜: 多伦多 (2014年第101位; 2013年第67位), 蒙特利尔(2014年第123位; 2013年第95位), 卡尔加里 (2014年第125位; 2013年第97位) ，渥太华 (2014年第152位; 2013年第118位).
在这个世界最贵城市的排行榜中，欧洲，亚洲，大洋洲的城市同样也在榜单上。中国的香港排在了第三位，紧接着是新加坡，瑞士的苏黎世，日内瓦，日本的东京，瑞士的伯尔尼,俄罗斯的莫斯科和中国的上海。
