Last night, I watched a section of the CBC’s The National about Vancouver. There were several segments, but the general theme seemed to be ‘what a profoundly multicultural city we live in’. For example, Vancouver has twice the number of mixed-ethnicity marriages than the national average.
On a lighter note, they interviewed Todd Wong (aka Toddish McWong), the organizer of a yearly fusion of Chinese New Year and Robbie Burns Day–Gung Haggis Fat Choy:
A quirky fusion/mix/buffet of Scottish Canadian and Chinese Canadian culture 12 course Chinese banguet dinner including haggis served with plum or sweet and sour sauces. For 2004, we presented the debut of Gung Haggis Wun-Tun.
I did a search for the event, and it turns out there’s an event weblog. Then I spotted Roland’s name, and it all became clear.
