tsk! : P whatever mennn!!....i'm going to melbourne : P

Melbourne is much better. Cheaper to live, more things to do.

(I live in Canberra)
Melbourne's better because its a more vibrant city. Canberra is like Washington D.C., where all the government buildings and offices are. If you need to find work, Melbourne would be a better choice.
As an Australian I would say Melbourne would be the better place to live. Canberra is a small city (300,000) people so it can get a little boring.Canberra is also colder than Melbourne and the cost of living is higher.
Melbourne is much more cosmopolitan and offers more opportunities for work etc.
Enjoy your time in Australia.
no one goes to Canberra voluntary ffs!
