Mr. Speaker, Claims · 113 words20 years ago, former prime minister Stephen Harper delivered in this House a historic apology and redress for the Chinese head tax.¹ That was a defining moment in our country’s reconciliation. It recognized a historic wrong and affirmed the great contributions of Chinese Canadians to Canada. From the railways that united our nation to the businesses, professions and communities that strengthen it today, Chinese Canadians have shaped our country’s success for generations. Today, Chinese Canadians continue to excel in public service, entrepreneurship, academics and culture. That is why I have introduced Motion No. 32, ²which would designate June 22 as national Chinese Canadian contributions day and recognize June as Chinese Canadian contributions month.³ The ask · 30 wordsAs we mark this important anniversary, let us honour the resilience, achievements and legacy of Chinese Canadians and ensure that their contributions continue to be recognized for generations to come.
