Anyways, last time i checked vancouver wasnt trying to be like HK.
Of course. No badmouthing of Vancouver was (or is) ever intended; I lived in Van for 5 years and loved the place.

Many of us Canadians freak out over the residential density of Downtown Vancouver...I was merely pointing out that when you see HK, it puts things into perspective!
