I have read the Last Spike, it's in our bookcase. I've been to Barkerville. I've lived longer here than anywhere else in the world. I've paid substantial taxes and never taken $1 of UIC or Welfare. Mind you I will take my CPP and my OAP will be clawed back.

Going to the expense of printing the forms in Mandarin is just one more step away from the natural bilingual state of Canada.

I ws told this morning that the Bay store in Richmond BC now makes store announcements in Chinese, whether it's Mandarin or Cantonese I don't know.

Learn the language of your country, whenever I travel I make an effort to learn some of the language even at my age. I went to Brazil recently and learned some Portuguese.
Obrigado.
