Re:Interactive Map of Toronto Housing Changes 2011-2016

Your comment is racist - and certainly unCanadian.
What on earth does someone's race have to do with the housing market? Why does a person of Chinese decent have any less of a right to a) live in Vancouver, b) buy a house, c) have some economic success, d) drive an Audi?
I'm sorry you're upset about the state of housing in Canada, I really am. Fortunately for you - most desirable cities in the Canada ( and the World ) have Chinese residents so you wouldn't be happy living there anyways - all those signs in Chinese, and the Audis! Oh the humanity!

So were we, but we stuck with it, and I'm glad.
App Engine is absolutely second to none as a PaaS. Fact is I sleep better at night on App Engine that I ever could on AWS.

They really do have an issue with communication. Unless you happen to know someone that works at facebook, you're pretty much left in the dark.
