I go to ubc, and I'm in arts so I wouldn't know much about studying financing here... but we do have the Sauder School of Business and things like that. we have mountains a half hour drive away.

I  go to Brock, and we apparently have a really good business school, but if your looking for skiing, there isn';t much, a couple places south of buffalo (kissing Bridge, Holiday Valley), and a couple places 2 hours north of brock (blue mountain and MSLM).  If I had a choice, i would go to UBC because you would only be 2 hours i think? away from whistler.

Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal all have good universities and mountains within an hour, Calgary is probably the furthest away from the mountains but i live here and the school is decent, quite a few kiwis around, and the local hills are sick.  There is a ski hill that is mostly park that is 8min away from the school.

I go to UBC and I like it. Vancouver is a nice place to live. There are lots of skiers here too.
