Nothing sinister at all (apart from your racial baiting, that is).

Lactalis’ recall is not even comparable to what happened in China.
It was a salmonella scandal. It happens in Canada all the time:

What happened in China was the addition cheaoer toxic compounds. Sorry, not the same. The Chineße manufacturer were killing almost on purpose. This is the truly sinister thing.

Stop defending the indefensible. You make it look even worse than it already is.

It’s not yours to touch anyway, not even in your arrogant dream. Why don’t you try touching that place with a stick! Security guard would jump all over you, thought you try to steal the puck.

Chinese demand for rentals? That’s not exactly consistent with the nonsense you clowns here spout, is it?

As usual, you don’t even understand. I was respondin about buying the place outright.
The Chinese money flows make it overvalued, and undesirable at current prices. The only reason one would buy that place is because they believe they can sell it for more money to Chinese “investors” in a few years.

That’s right – they bought into the myth. Just like you.

“The moment we suppress Chinese demand”

How do “we” plan on doing that with the NDP stating all newcomers welcome, protecting home owners hard earned equity as priority and declaring foreign buyers will not be targeted? Are you just going to try to irritate them away?

Yeah..Wilkinson seems to have a lot of baggage.
His leadership win may be based as a dark horse candidate sliding up the middle…aka not a favourite.

He may be a Gordon Campbell clone,as apparently Campbell was a real control freak behind closed doors…..Richmond Center went through 3 MLAs in 3 consecutive elections.

I think he will have a short leash….we’ll soon see what he will be like as Opposition Leader.

Wilkinson would reintroduce corporate financing of parties on day one. Until the BC Libs hange their tune, they will remain unelectable.

Actually the BC Liberals were the first ones to introduce the ban on large donations. The NPD shot it down then did a tax payer funded version which broke their election promise.

Unemployable.

By our I simply mean the market where voters live. We still have a democratically elected government (until China decides to force their system on us). Our market is meant to convey that we are free to write the laws that regulate real estate transactions. We could for example change the tax system to force identity disclosures and heavily (very heavily!) tax foreign money. They don’t vote yet.

The whites will soon lose the entire lower mainland. Then Asian rules. Wait and see.

Then the Asian construction firms will take over from BOSA and Onni. Hahaha. Wait and see

Yeah…I always wondered about that….

BOSA and Onni cannot be stand alone firms anymore..they must be beholden to their Chinese masters…simply front companies.

Not to worry……Aecon will soon be the sole contractor for all of Canada.

IMHO, there are too many laws, rule regulations that exist below the surface that we are not aware of.

Example re: Site C dam.
NDP did not cancel it…..excuse was too costly to cancel..therefore only option = go ahead.

However, Aecon got sold to Chinese, who now have their hooks entrenched into the Site C project. So…was this the plan all along..that Liberals and NDP are in on it ??? or they were set up. Is China going to do what it has done in Africa..simply bring in Chinese workers and displace locals.

Regardless Site C is likely one example of what we can expect re: our rules and regulations effectively meaningless and toothless.

Maybe when you will stop being a leech on society. Real estate “investor”? You contribute zero to society.

Leech? I pay taxes to my nose to even feed the druggies. People like you enjoying leeching on the hard working individuals.

We all pay taxes. Many of us at a marginal rate over 50%.
In this country we pay for the services we consume.
If anything real estate is taxed much more lightly than other capital.
So shut up. You don’t understand what you are talking about.

You don’t pay 50%.

My guess is that several of the posters on this site actually are well-educated professionals, often paying effective tax rates even above 50% when you factor in all contributions.
And yes, my taxes are my own business. I am proud to say that I pay in full and I don’t cheat. I think taxes buy us civilization and social harmony.

I wish our new millionaire immigrants from China shared that feeling. But I somehow doubt it.

So your “many of us” statement was deliberately misleading then? Shocking. And you also took the opportunity to have a dig at foreigners, like the non-racist you claim to be? Pathetic.

Leech. you know like those who live in multi million dollar houses who claim poverty level incomes and live off the backs of honest hard working tax paying canadians…

What’s B20.?

……is that a rock group? …..or a vaginal creme?

What time in the morning do you start drinking, approximately?

Actually..excluding housing, one can find deals on just about anything.

You would be amazed at what Freebies exist on CRAIGSLIST.

You’re literally the dumbest person I’ve ever encountered. Of course there’s no such exemption in any definition I’ve ever seen.

It is a racial slur, yes.

The postman does that all day long. That is a real job.
RE agents are the lowest form of human (with a few notable exceptions, like our own Paul). All they can think of is ways to scam, shirk and get paid. Sounds familiar?
And you know who told me all this? Other RE agents.

Blame yourself for being landless. No one can help you. Did you stick your $65k in gic at 1.5%? Man, you are rich!

You are not only ridiculous but consistently wrong in your assumptions.
Funny how real estate “investors” presume to know what other people do and give advise. As if they are Warren Buffett for buying and selling real estate in a bubble.
