Not sure why social warriors need to hold the racism flag so close to their chest. Nothing racist here at all IMO. It's about rich and the non rich.

Whatever, way of the world

since you know it's about money, then don't blame chinese / asians keeping your real estate market afloat. it seems like Chinese is always the scapegoat to take the blame for virtually every single problem to happen in vancouver.
Bonus:
Is it racist to sell my house to the highest bidder?
