Ah, Vancouver, British Columbia — the city that plays Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, and even India — just about anything and everything, but itself.

As the Simpsons once put it: "Come for the tax breaks, stay for the marijuana."

And oh boy, were they right about that. Many production houses filmed their first season (or just even the pilot) in Vancouver for the tax incentive. According to the Daily Hive, Vancouver in the 2016-17 fiscal years had an estimated of $2.6 billion spent by the film and television industry, employing about 35,000 people in BC — creating new jobs and greater opportunities for economic growth.

Many Vancouver visitors often come for the nightlife, city beaches, and the amazing food — like poutine and maple syrup wings. However, Vancouver is much more than that — they have a significantly booming film and television industry — even referred as “Hollywood North.” Vancouver is currently North America’s third largest center for film and television production.

The perfect Pacific location with a diverse geographic — sitting right by the coast, yet minutes away from the mountains and the city — Vancouver can be easily disguised as the streets of India in ‘Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible 4 (2011),’ or as the Bronx in Jackie Chan’s ‘Rumble in the Bronx (1995).'
