Based on Statistics Canada reports, the number of those with Asian roots in Metro Vancouver will continue to grow at a faster rate than the non-Asian population.
Around the globe, the only major cities {with more than one million population} outside Asia that come close to Metro Vancouver for their portion of residents with Asian backgrounds are San Francisco (33 per cent Asian), London, England (21 per cent), Metro Toronto (35 per cent), Calgary (23 per cent) and Sydney, Australia (19 per cent).
Observers from Asian and non-Asian backgrounds predict that as a result of Metro Vancouver's unique demographics, residents should expect more changes; adjustments that will create opportunities and richness, as well as tension and difficulties.
These cultural analysts foresee an accelerating rise of Asian-oriented restaurants, retail outlets, artistic events, religions, community service organizations, schools, neighbourhood enclaves, family-reunification programs, signage, international business partnerships, corporate customs and Asian-language newspapers and TV stations.
Meanwhile, 19 per cent of new immigrants in the city have European ethnic heritage, while small portions have roots in Latin America or Africa.
What does this rising influence of people with Asian backgrounds — speaking a variety of languages and following many different national customs — mean for Metro?
Farid Rohani, who leads the Vancouver-based Laurier Institute, an organization devoted to exploring the pros and cons of multiculturalism, believes there should be economic benefits to high immigration from Asia, and he hopes the city will become more dynamic as it also adopts a "pan-Asian culture."

There have been some difficulties, as there has always been with any immigrants from anywhere, but I believe it's been very good for Metro Van overall. Plenty of prosperity, business, diversity and culture. Exactly what I personally grew up with and I'm liking it more and more all the time.
Whether us, our parents or our ancestors, we all came here for the same reasons and opportunities. Vancouver is truly a city of the New World.
I'll try to stay positive... I'd rather have Asians here than Negroes!

want to talk about Gateway? Not much to talk about, we killed that
Quote from: "Wambo Rong"
No, it starts next year. Our oil is going to Asia you Pansy. Suck it up, or fuck off to your corporate paymasters in Riyadh.
We killed Gateway. What's up now, Northern Spirit? We'll kill that too.
Quote from: "Wambo Rong"
It's approved it's alive. Our oil is the best oil in the world, but we need world prices. If you had any loyalty to Canada, you'd agree. Unfortunately, you sold ur soul to homo OPEC long ago.

I don't know what you and Wambo Rong are talking about, but it has nothing to do with Romero's original post does it?
Give it a rest, both of you.
You will not get oil tankers on our coast. Live with it.

Hey chuggy, wouldn't you rather kill a bottle of Canadian Club? Nice thread derail, asshole.
Happy Easter, Oscar. ac_toofunny

You Saudis don't own Canada's coast yet. However, with traitors like you it may yet happen.

Whatever it is you and Wambo are discussing, please take it to another thread and please stop derailing this one.
talking straight at you
Quote from: "Wambo Rong"
You are talking straight at us instead of to us..
Why? Why do you want to wreck our discussion board?
What did we do to you to make you hate us so much?
Don't worry Fash Oscar will blackout soon and you won't hear from him for days. By then you will be long gone.
Shen Li, stop deleting posts.
Loyalty to Alberta, right. Wasn't it you said you'd love to be the fifty second state?

Canadian resources are the best in the world. Our production will actually increase this year to about 3.3 million barrels per day. Growing to over 5 million in the future. Tell your sheikh mullah bfs's you need more money to fight against your country's economy. It's not working, we are getting more coal and oil to Asia. You Vancouverites should apply for membership in the UAE.
Thank you Wambo for ruining a good thread.

I'm not Vancouver. I'm up here on this coast you want to run your tankers on and we won't let you.

When the Langley Ladyboy says I fail, he really means a win for OPEC. Sorry dude, our oil is the best in the world. The US is not entitled to a price discount.

Anyone that wants Asia to buy a barrel of crude from the Saudis instead of us is either insane, on drugs or on their payroll.
Anyway, I agree, that idiot is here to cause shit and nothing else.
It's wonderful that Vancouver is now an Asian City. Hopefully we can also have Arabic cities Indian and African cities too.
Alhamdulillah!!!

His main tired old sleaze ball tactic is to label others in his failed attempts to place them on defense .... a tired old tactic used by cowards
Politically correct queers compete about how non-white their culture is and how many immies their country takes in.
Respect every culture except white culture in a white country.

Bigotry spares me from having to listen to Islam, Ni__erisms, ragheadisms, queerisms, environmentalisms etc.
