I live in Vancouver now, but I used to live in Surrey. Everyone who knows BC knows that Surrey is nicknamed Surrey Lanka or Currey, B.C. for a reason, there is a huge indo-Asian population there. I have been in many houses and apartment buildings with a very, very strong smell, which says a lot, because I can't smell very well for shit, and it can be very over powering. Even walking down the street you can smell it.  Just giving an idea to some people of how strong the smell really is, and I'm going to stay out of the politics of it all.
