China'BOXED

[Anonymous]

Don't be surprised to see Obamalamadingdong get all gushy, mushy and cuddly with the Communist Chinese in the next 12 months.Same for Harper too I'd imagine. Now that he's been selected in albeit a divided nation.More Chinese workers on the horizon folks just in a nick of time to drive the mean standard of living down even more amongst the dwindling middle classes.



A Middle Class, What's That!

.....arent I the cheery one today.

I can understand Harper eying the floor because Obama is not the most reliable dance partner. That trip to India waas not just because he wanted a phot-op in front of the Taj Mahal. We really, really need to wean ourselves off total reliance on the US market and that is exactly what we are doing.

We really really don't need the Chinese either, we need to diversify totally. China is a Communist Totalitarian fascist State. Do you really want to let China buy us out, thats what they  want with FIPA. You do know this don't you.Canada is being sold down the river. Look at whats happening in Africa.Take chickens for example. China is sending million of émigrés to colonize Africa to interfere with local economies with inferior goods. Chickens in this case. Colonialism is alive and well with the Chinese concerning Africa!

You cannot trust China's intentions.



Once you start to negotiate with them you've already lost.

Want to know how loyal Richmond Chinese are to Canada?



In D.M. North's March 4 letter ("Lessons on integration"), the letter-writer once again brought up the assimilation topic. While the letter-writer did present some valid reasons of why the Chinese in Richmond would not practice English, unfortunately the biggest reason was left out in his article.







The truth may be shocking for some, but I feel a frank but honest discussion is more healthy than being polite but hypocritical: For many of the Chinese in Vancouver, becoming Canadian was never a reason why we moved here, nor do we have the desire to do so. Rather, we see ourselves as Chinese expatriates, living in Canada for a short-term purpose, be it providing our kids to an easier education environment, setting up a business, or even just taking a long vacation.







Much like many Canadians who spend some years living overseas and eventually return to their homeland, a lot of us would just spend several years in Canada and eventually return to Asia. With that mindset in mind, it would be silly to think that many expatriates would actually take the effort and learn a foreign language, in this case English.







Furthermore, many Chinese simply see Canada as a vacation home, allowing them to come for a couple of months every year and enjoy Canada's great outdoors after a year of hard work in China. Much like many Americans who have a vacation home in Mexico, would anyone actually expect these Americans to take learning Spanish seriously? Rather, the Americans would expect the area where his Mexican vacation home is located to be an English friendly environment, and the same goes for us Chinese expatriates, and this has made Richmond the way it is today, catering to Chinese expatriates like me and many others.







I really do hope the Canadians can come to the realization that we are here not because we wanted to be Canadian, but simply because we like the resource this country provides to us. Much like many of your ancestors who came to this land, not because of they wanted to become natives, but because they desire the resources and opportunities in this land.







So please, my friends, set your expectations right.

Sure, many Chinese see Canada as a vacation home like many Canadians see Mexico and other countries as vacation homes, but ending up saying "we are here not because we wanted to be Canadian" is a false generalization. It's pretty obvious that nearly all Chinese who come to Canada want to be Canadian. They want to come here, they like it here, they stay here and they become good Canadian citizens. Only a small percentage of Chinese immigrants go back home.



The author of that letter doesn't know what he's talking about. He certainly doesn't speak for most Chinese Canadians.

I don't see a problem with people from another nation buying holiday homes in Canada even if it is done with money that they can't account for. It does alarm me when large scale immigration is done from a nationality who support the enjoy living here while they support taking over this nation and believe we deserve being subjugated would laugh if we they succeed.

I don't like the idea of foreign money pricing Canadian families out of the housing market.

[Gary Oak]

and how do these people have a million dollars to plunk down when their wages are about as much as my EI or less ? all while they support their families ?

Those people that buy three million dollar homes were not on low wages in China.

Chinese don't want to become Canadians, they want Canadians to become like them.



Chinese immigrants have flocked to Canada's west coast and transformed Vancouver into Canada's very own Asian metropolis. The days of concern over the city being turned into 'Hongcouver' have gone. What does the future hold for Canada's Asian population?



Shoppers stroll casually past a Lamborghini store in Richmond's Aberdeen Centre - a major Asian mall in this once sleepy Vancouver suburb known for its farmland and fishing village.



Outside the shopping centre, people are queuing at the many Chinese restaurants. In the local supermarkets, butchers are picking live seafood out of fish tanks, chopping off the heads, then gutting and packaging them up under the watchful eye of customers, almost exclusively Chinese-Canadian.



Richmond is North America's most Asian city - 50% of residents here identify themselves as Chinese. But it's not just here that the Chinese community in British Columbia (BC) - some 407,000 strong - has left its mark. All across Vancouver, Chinese-Canadians have helped shape the local landscape.

You cannot deny that there are a lot of Chinese in Canada. You cannot deny their loyalty is not divided. They are 100% to China.
