Stanly Park, Vancouver BC Canada 1991

A day in a park. I think it was in June. Canadian people were talking about Chinese were coming from Hong Kong. Hong Kong was united with Main Land China in 1997. According to statistics compiled by the Canadian Consulate in Hong Kong, from 1991 to 1996, “about 30000 Hong Kongers emigrated annually to Canada, comprising over half of all Hong Kong emigration and about 20 percent of the total number of immigrants to Canada.” The great majority of these people settled in the Toronto and Vancouver areas, as there are well-established Chinese communities in those cities. I heard some bad jokes about Chinese and Asian in Canada. Some Canadian openly talked, maybe they thought I did not understand English, about their fear of it. Despite of the above issue, the park was really ideal place to visit on Sundays for families. I wish if Tokyo has something similar to the Stanly Park. My wife also enjoyed on the day.
