Quite frankly, I'm surprised by some of those cities on this Top 25 global influence cities (2010 Global Cities Index). I'm not here to dispute the exclusion of Vancouver from the list. But some of those cities, while I'm sure their domestic influence might be huge, don't necessarily have influence beyond their national borders, at least no more than say a city like Vancouver. Like I said, I am surprised by some of these cities on the list and I will have to look into them further.
