Who’s the best?
It doesn’t matter whether you’re asking about hockey players or rock bands, everybody has an opinion (and is more than happy to share it) about who’s the best. When it comes to who’s the best in Prince George, most residents have the same strong views. Everybody has their favourite burger, coffee place, restaurant, golf course, hair salon and so on. Congratulations to all the winners and runners up. Keep up the good work. For those that didn’t make the list, now you know who you’re up against. Hopefully we can recognize you in next year’s Reader’s Choice Awards. The Citizen’s 2017 Reader’s Choice Awards allows everyone to compare their favourites against what the best as chosen by our readers. Yes, it’s a popularity contest but that doesn’t make the

results any less significant. Those local businesses work hard to be the best they can be for their customers and it is gratifying to them to be acknowledged by local residents for offering the best products and services. And so many people can’t be wrong. When thousands of voters are choosing the best of Prince George, they might be on to something. If you haven’t already, go check them out and find out why everybody thinks they’re so great. You might discover a new favourite! Best of all, you’ll be supporting the hard work of local entrepreneurs eager to earn your business. Who’s the best? You told us that the following are the best in Prince George. Thanks for voting and thanks helping us let everyone know who’s the best.
