Thank you for sharing, I found that to be a good resource. I also recently learned that July 1st 1923 is when the federal government passed the Chinese Exclusion Act (link below). https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/governments/multiculturalism-anti-racism/chinese-legacy-bc/history/discrimination/federal-exclusion-act#:~:text=Passed%20on%20July%201%2C%20Dominion,longer%20permitted%20to%20enter%20Canada.
I really wonder what life would be like here if Turtle Island wasn't violently and systematically colonized.
Thank you for the link too, I had heard about the terrible treatment the Chinese were subject to in the US, but had not known (but not really surprised) that Canada was up to the same crap.
And yeah, I wonder that too. I think the best we can do now is listen to those who survived it despite the continued attempts to erase their cultures, and learn from them.
