How far is Vancouver Canada from San Francisco California? |
Distance: Vancouver, BC to SanFran, CA
First off, just like in the US, Canada is divided into regions. These regions are called provinces. The city of Vancouver is in the province of British Columbia (B.C.). You may not care, but if you ever want to impress a Canadian, refrain from referring to cities in Canada in the "<city>, <country>" form (e.g. Vancouver, Canada). Canada is much larger in area than the US (although with fewer cities) and it is aggravating to here Canada referred to like a state. To really impress a Canadian, don't use the name of our country at all, just write "Vancouver, B.C." or "Toronto, ON". Hearing "Toronto, Canada" would be as silly to a Canadian as I imagine "New York, U.S.A" would be to an American, although maybe "Los Angeles, U.S.A." would be a better example as New York is also a state.
Anyway, the distance in miles between Vancouver, B.C. and San Francisco, CA, as per http://www.geobytes.com/CityDistanceTool.htm, is 799 miles or 1286 kilometers. I believe the drive can be made in under 20 hours, ignoring speed limits.
