Cannot say this is a surprise to me, because I did not expect their Vancouver studio to last very long.
Disney doesn't have a great track record of their "off-shore" studios keeping their doors open to begin with.
My hear goes out to any colleagues of mine in Van that got the notice today, I don't know if it was a surprise or not--but I would not be surprised if it was just a bomb dropped on all of them.

There are always signs, there is just not much you can do about it.
Not a surprise to me too.
It's a common step of the development of the industry.
