It has been a while since I picked up Toronto and explored. What I recall is that it is all about the city center and waterfront. With Pearson so far from, I’m sure none of this is going to brighten up a final approach for me. Now that little airport on the waterfront was much more interesting!
But you asked about Vancouver, right? Sorry I don’t recall if adding the city is helpful on approach to YVR. It is very nice though, as they all are!
