The sales drop for Vancouver seems slight, but hasn't the inventory growth been a bit more dramatic?

I have to say I don't follow Vancouver as closely, but it seems like this guy keeps some pretty decent stats:

So far 2010 is actually exceeding 2008's pace for inventory.

Did Vancouver experience a similar large rise in 2008 inventory and subsequent dramatic price drop in '08 like we did here in Calgary before the emergency interest rates stopped the bleeding?

But I guess that's assuming the inventory growth peaks out late in the year like it did in '08.
