I would hope I would have the self awareness not to laugh at anyone complaining about the price of Vancouver if I bought my east van house 30 years ago for pennies and it's now worth $1.5M. Just because London is even more expensive? No one is allowed to complain about housing prices in their city unless they live in a top five expensive city on the planet? Makes about zero sense.

Looks like he's just arguing to brag. If you can't live in your favourite place in the world with $1.5 million Canadian I wonder how much poverty there is in London, must be very high if $1.5 million buys you a garage. Guess you need to be born into wealth in London or you have to move to poor Vancouver.
What happens when you finish university in London? Do people just move because they can't afford it?
