Along with glory, the history of Canada has taught us pain and shame in its remarkable saga. However, it could not predict that such darkness would repeat itself so quickly. We did not expect that this book - the English translation of "Canada's Chinese Gene" - would release during such a moment. Right now, Canada's multiculturalism is facing unprecedented challenges after the coronavirus pandemic broke out in 2020. We see a trend of racism, discrimination, and hatred against Asians spreading for more than a year. We see the tragedies of 215 indigenous residential school children, whose remains were found undocumented in Kamloops, British Columbia. We see with trepidation that a 20-year-old white man drove into and killed three generations of a Muslim family walking on the street in London, Ontario. All these moments outline the seriousness of racial discrimination and racial hatred in Canada. "It's always possible to wake someone from sleep, but no amount of noise will wake someone who is pretending to be asleep." This book serves as another wakeup call. " Canada's Chinese Gene " uses historical facts to prove that Canadians of Chinese heritage are one of the greatest community builders in British Columbia and nation builders in Canada. It also illustrates the current status of the Chinese community today to show that Chinese Canadians are true portrayals of Canadians. Canada is a place of hope. We are confident that our constitutional and institutional systems are strong enough to defeat racial discrimination and to defend Canada's principal values of human rights and rule of law. Defending these Canadian values is in the unwavering beliefs of the authors of this book, and calling on the Chinese community to pursue higher goals is part of the authors' heart of self-reflection.
