CCCDA Presents Spectacular Variety Show "Embrace China" to Toronto Audience
With tremendous effort by the Members of Parliament of Chinese descent, starting in spring 2017, the Canadian government will proclaim the first day of the Lunar Year as the beginning of the 15-day "Spring Festival". Parliament's deputy speaker made it official on the evening of June 1, 2016, when the popular motion passed to loud applause from all parties. "This motion would bring together friends from Asia and Canada and makes Asian culture accessible to the local mainstream and minority communities," Don Valley North M.P. Geng Tan said in a statement. "The celebration of the Chinese New Year has served as a platform for bringing the community together and reminding that diversity and inclusion are sources of strength." In fact, so will all Asian Canadians. "Mr Speaker, I rise today to address Motion No 38", said Randy Boissonnault, parliamentary secretary to the Honourable Mélanie Joly, minister of Canadian heritage, on June 1, 2016. "I support this motion, and I am honoured to be here to speak about an event of exceptional significance to a great number of Canadians, the Lunar New Year and Spring Festival," said Boissonnault, "I am proud to stand in support of the motion to recognize the first day of Lunar Year as the beginning of the 15-day Spring Festival ... in recognition of the tremendous contributions of people of Asian heritage to Canadian society."
