A newspaper says Turkey has the most less-attractive people in the world.

It is possible. I don't get what you try to say and I don't understand why my words offend you.

I thought maybe you made a bad comment. But if you did not intend to offend, can you please explain what you meant to say? How does life stop at midnight?

What I try to say is life is in order in Vancouver. Same news said Vancouver is clean city with friendly people. But she is not full of surprises.

Mr. Topbaş has stated on numerous occasions that Istanbuls infrastructure will be improved in order to remove the grid-lock. There is no need to be so pessimistic. Patience is the key...we waited for so long...I'm sure we can wait another year.

I think he is trying to say he read that nightlife in Vancouver is dull, and after midnight there are not many options to go out and party.
Show him a few pictures of crazy Canadian girls dancing at nightclubs, and he might change his mind

I believe the nightlife in Vancouver is similar to the nightlife of Toronto's. A lot of clubs in one district, some that are open till the wee hours of early morning  I will look for some pictures for you
