Hey Canadian and non-Canadian PJ Fans, 
I decided to collect all or most of the available official Canadian bootlegs. 

I already own the following (have been),
2005:
Calgary, Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Hamilton, Ottawa, Toronto
2011 (have been):
Toronto 1, Saskatoon, Calgary
2016 (have been):
Quebec, Ottawa, Toronto 1 & 2, Pemberton
2022 (have been):
Quebec, Ottawa, Hamilton, Toronto

Now I'm wondering, which are your favorites, and why are they your favorites? Have some nice anecdotes of these shows? 
Are there any bootlegs I should really skip (due to bad sound, performance not the best, e.g.)? 

And which ones should I get first?

Looking forward to hear from you!

    Calgary-09- Cool set list, 5 songs from Lost Dogs(Brother played for the 2nd time ever)  and add in Rats, STBC and Dissident to name a few 
    Calgary- 13- The Blizzard show. Boys brought it that night especially with the conditions and how everyone got there. Good setlist. 
    Edmonton’11 and London ‘13 are good bootlegs 
    All shows from the 2005 Canadian Tour.

    2000 Toronto is fantastic and has one of the best Immortality's ever.
    Best ones that I've seen personally were Vancouver 2005 and Vancouver 2013. 
    You can't really go wrong with any show from the Canadian 2005 tour. Those are all solid to great shows.

    Although I’ve been a fan since 1992, I just started getting REALLY into them in 2011. For this reason, virtually all 10 of the shows from that year rank quite high for me (although I only attended one of them 🥴).

    Hopefully someday they will officially release the Pearl Jam 2005 Experience via CD with a sweet custom box set. Someday ..

    So I got Halifax 2005 and Vancouver 2013 for now. Halifax blew me away. What a tight set.
