Man, it kills me that I can't get to Toronto's Chinese malls during the week! Big Tony Leung at one of my regular haunts! Damn.

It's interesting to note that his parents live in Richmond Hill, one of the tonier 'burbs in the North End of the city. It's a predominantly Chinese city (within the larger "Greater Toronto Area"), and according to at least one Chinese friend and another non-Chinese friend, it's home to more Hong Kong celebs and ex-celebs than one might realize, or perhaps recognize all these years later!
