81 People might view your comments as racist because when people use a racist term, or write something that could be construed as racist, they always qualify it by saying they are from that race. "Eg. The new townhouse across from me is completely owned by asian investors....I am asian, but that is going to affect things around here"

"People who blame Vancouver’s high house prices on immigrants are barking up the wrong tree. I’m suspicious of them." Actually it's the bulls who believe immigration is why prices will go up forever.

By the way Vancouver has always been an "ethnic enclave" if he means a place populated by non-indignant people. The city started as a British enclave. Or do Brits not count as immigrants? Out.

Listen I didn't start with this. How about the guy who did - the one who said this... "Lets face it, Vancouver will be an ethnic enclave in less than 20 years if the current pace of immigration and settlement continues." ... explains what he means. What exactly is an "ethnic enclave" for a start? Then we can decide who the racist is.

What did I say that was racist? "whitey"? I'm white - I was being facetious. People who blame Vancouver's high house prices on immigrants are barking up the wrong tree. I'm suspicious of them.
