Tsur Somerville David Ley: The event attracted about 200 people, according to CBC. Other panelists included UBC professors Tsur Somerville and David Ley and real estate developer Shao Long Li. Moderator Christopher Rea, the director of the Centre for Chinese Research, said the goal of the event was to "share perspectives" on Vancouver booming real estate market. Kosh said his research shows that high-stress real estate markets often show in cities and regions like Edmonton and Calgary with high commodity production. He said Canada first brought in immigrants from Europe, then Asia, and most recently has concentrated on China with the advent of the immigrant investor program. About 200 people attended the forum, which was organized by UBC. The push away from China Geography professor David Ley focused his part of the discussion on how immigration has impacted countries like Canada and the U.S., which have often had a shortage of capital and labour.
