What is happening in Vancouver, especially Richmond are not exciting property developments, its a takeover.

Where's your source?
I knew someone had to come in here and make all these skewed claims.

As far as I'm concerned, the quality of life has already improved by leaps and bounds compared to 15 years ago, where most areas were just run-down industrial blight. Now there are many improved urban areas where people can go to. Only thing that brings in criticism is the demographic makeup in this city. As a result, Richmond and its population never fail to attract the usual racist comments. Note scrapin's choice of wordings: "it's a takeover". This is darn Trumpish.
Happy Canada Day!
