And, if realtor.ca is any indication of how realtor's can "help", our industry is out of touch with the market. By associating ourselves with this new site we are doing ourselves a great disservice. First and foremost - Google already has an online mapping program. All you need to do is input a Postal Code and up comes the address. It is free, fast, efficient, and when used in conjunction with MLS.ca is a great system. CREA, clearly, does not understand the needs of their clients, with regards to access to information, nor the technology with which that information is relayed. Greg is right,

The new site is an absolute disaster. You can't find what you want easily, it is terribly slow, and a user interface mess. What were they thinking? Bring back mls.ca -- even with its shortcomings, it was far better than this. I just visited the realtor.ca site for the first time today after using mls.ca for years.
