Chinese Immigration: Immigration To Canada

Vancouver Sun Dept: Lam died early Monday morning following a battle with prostate cancer. His three daughters and his grandchildren were by his side, according to Vancouver Sun. "We have lost a great Canadian," said Maggie Ip, founder of immigrant service agency S.U.C.C.E. S.S. "He was a true Canadian in every sense of the word; he was an immigrant himself and did great things for the community in terms of cultural harmony." David Lam, the Hong-Kong-born philanthropist who put a generous face on the strong wave of ethnic Chinese immigration to Canada in the 1980s and became one of the province's most memorable lieutenant-governors, has died at the age of 87. His death left a legion of mourners, who described Lam as a great Canadian and devoted family man who was intent on creating a unified, multicultural B.C. As reported in the news.
