I would think the east coast provinces are the $hittiest places to live for a Chinese. There is absolutly no asian influence in these parts. (I live in New Brunswick)

I think the worst Canadian province for Asians would be Alberta. It's like the Southern United States over there, from what I've heard.

Right now, Alberta's the place to go if you want the dough. I wouldn't mind moving there for a few years and get rich, before moving back to Vancouver or Toronto.

I've heard some bad treatment Asians have gotten in Newfoundland.

Are you serious? I have friends from Nfld and they loved it there. They talk about Nfld all the damn time lol, it kinda makes me want to move there. embarassedlaugh.gif

One of my friends lived in a city with 400 people that was like 8 hours from St. John's and he has nothingbut good stuff to say lol.

Worst is probably Alberta. :/ Great place to make money though. But yeah I know a lot of ethnics, who after becoming rich in Alberta, are itching to leave (with their money).

I used to live in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I loved it too lol. It was a rather small community, and as such, the people there seemed a lot more warm, friendly, tight-knit. Innocent too. I guess it's much harder to do that if you're living in a big city like Vancouver or Toronto (especially) though, since things get a lot more complicated and you need to know how to protect yourself. But the majority of the people here aren't bad either. I really do love Vancouver.

I live in Fredericton. The Asian community here has grown tremedously over the past two decades. Since it is a University city we have more students than acutal immigrants but some do decide to stay here. From what my Chinese friends tell me the community is well organized.

The fastest growing community here is actually Korean. The NB government has been promoting the province to would-be immigrants in Korea for the past few years. Well over 100 families have moved here in the past 5 years.

They actually have a pretty big chinese group thing in Halifax. Fredericton for being the capital of new brunswick, it isn't that big and diverse as it should be.

Quebec is pretty bad.

In the sense that most Chinese come to Canada to learn English. When they go to Quebec and learn English, they get shunned.

It's because it's easier to immigrate there than to somewhere else in Canada.

You've got to be fu-king kidding me. They have the toughest selection process out of any province I'd say. (B/c of the Canada-Québec Accord) They're so picky because they prefer immigrants who already have a working knowledge of French.

Moving to Québec while wanting to learn English is so counterintuitive. FFS the children of new immigrants are FORCED to go to school in French.

Oh really? Okay. My information is a little outdated.

I was speaking on terms of six years ago. My aunt and uncle couldn't, no matter what they did, immigrate straight to Vancouver or Toronto, but they made it easily into Quebec.

But... speaking of the schools there... they teach french better than we teach english here. It's pretty sad really. They speak fluent English, but all we can muster is Bonjour and some random phrases.

You either got your sentence backwards or you live in québec lol.

Yeah, they're forced to. Québécois need a good knowledge of English to do well outside their province. What's French to someone outside of Québec? Lol. I don't think I've ever spoken to someone in French outside of a French class. Hell, west of Ontario, no provincial curricula put French as a mandatory course.
