		<description>Sad that Japanese has not even made a point-something demographic dent in the GTA, anywhere.

This explains my ongoing inability to have Japanese cuisine ordered and delivered on-demand, to all points of the GTA compass, with the ease of a pizza or Chinese food.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;@Marcus:&lt;/strong&gt; Well, a &lt;em&gt;mostly&lt;/em&gt; civil comment! I think we might be able to converse now.

Dig through the archives of this blog -- I usually point to some kind of data or provide some kind of citation to back up my statements.

I like Ontario -- and Canada -- and don't have any problem with white people in general -- to use to hackneyed line, some of my best friends are white. I think you've interpreted &lt;a href="http://www.joeydevilla.com/2007/12/20/photo-of-the-day-2/" rel="nofollow"&gt;this posting&lt;/a&gt; -- which is &lt;em&gt;one&lt;/em&gt; photo, not &lt;em&gt;twenty&lt;/em&gt; -- as a symptom of some kind of Malcolm X syndrome I have. 

All I want is the same opportunity to live well, have meaningful work, make my own contribution to the mix and enjoy a fine single malt every now and again (and it's worked out pretty well for me). "Revenge against whitey" isn't on my list.

As for Ruby, that's a matter of personal preference. To each his own.</description>

		<description>I'm impressed to see a Torontonian reference data so thoroughly.  That's a really, really good start.  Bonus points for not injecting too much passive-aggresive commentary.  Here's hoping 2008 brings more factually accurate documentable discussion.

Ontario passed its first anti-discrimination legislation in 1946.  It's now 2008.  If, after 60 years of "fighting" "racism", brown guys are still spectacularly hostile towards white people, anglo-saxons in particular, then it's time to shut 'er down and call it a failure.  And yes, brown guys posting twenty consecutive "funny" photos of white people acting goofy is in fact hostile, considering you'd go running to the human rights commission if we reciprocated in kind.

Generations of white guys in Canada have done stuff to make your life less of a hassle, Joey, and it would be nice if we got something other than a slap in the face for our efforts.  You may now commence rebutting with a fifth consecutive attack on my sanity which, coming from a Ruby "programmer", really, really hurts.</description>
