In #PortAlberni in early the 1990s.
Shortly after my 4th Uncle(Dad's little brother) & Aunt bought a small store & built their family home beside it. They've since retired & sold the store. They still live in Port Alberni.

However, since consulting the public would take a few years to form legislation, the #HumanRights group urged the #CanadianGovernment to set up an #independent #reporting #hotline first.

#Canadian #history from #stories of 1st #Chinese women to come to #Canada & subsequent #generations of #ChineseCanadian women. Amazing tale of #courageous #women who left behind their families, knowing they would never see them again & of girls who were shipped off to #NewWorld to marry men they'd never met. These are the women who fought against the many forms of #racism they faced in Canada while, at the same time, #challenging #sexism within their own #communities .
