The Globe and Mail ran an article ‘In Vancouver, the third wave hits’, by Kerry Gold, 17 Jun 2010, that argues that Chinese buyers continue to “pour their wealth into Vancouver real estate”. At vancouvercondo.info, commenter /dev/null [Jun 18 2010 11:08 am] analyzed the sources that Kerry Gold had used for this story:
“Let’s see who he/she spoke to for details for the story:
“West Side realtor Ryan Dyer”
“Magnum Projects’ George Wong” (“condo marketer”)
“Vancouver developer Robert Macdonald”
“Marketer Bob Rennie”
“Vincent Chen of Visas Consulting Group” (“one of the largest immigration consulting firms in China”)
“Macdonald Realty VP Dan Scarrow”
“Kelowna realtor Alexandra Rebagliati”
