IF this then that else LIST

I would like to write a function that performs this:

=IF(F8="Calgary","No",IF(F8="Vancouver","Yes",???????))

Where ??????? returns a LIST (currently named "LOAs") where the user can pick Yes, No or Partial.

I am not sure how to reference the list in...

If I reference the cells that have the list components I get a #VALUE error.
If I reference another cell which has the data validation, I get a "0".
If I reference INDIRECT(LOAs) I get a #REF error.

Please help! I can't figure it out from the other forums I have seen out there.

Thanks! Alexis
