Awesome Asian-Canadians to Know
With Asian-Canadian Heritage Month here, I thought it'd be nice to celebrate some cool Asian-Canadians. :)
Kew Dock Yip
In 1885, as soon as Chinese people finished building the first railway that went all across Canada, the Canadian government made a rule that basically banned all Chinese people from immigrating to Canada: they had to pay a huge fine simply because they were Chinese.
That's where Kew Dock Yip comes in. He was the first Chinese-Canadian lawyer in Canada, and thanks to his hard work the racist rule was eventually removed.
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan
A Tamil actress who plays the main character in a Netflix show for teenagers called Never Have I Ever. When she got the job it was her first time trying out for an acting job. How lucky is that?!
David Suzuki
No "Awesome Asian-Canadians" list would be complete without David Suzuki. He is a Japanese-Canadian scientist who is most famous for his books and tv shows for kids about nature and how to help fight climate change.
Vicky Sunohara
It's a Canadian list, so of course we have a Hockey player in it. Vicky Sunohara is a Japanese-Canadian hockey player who's said to be as good as Wayne Gretzky. She has won three medals for Canada at the Olympics (one silver and two gold).
Simu Liu
A Chinese-Canadian actor. If you recognize him, you probably know him as Shang-Chi/Sean from the movie Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, where he played the first Asian superhero in a Marvel movie or as one of the main Kens in the live-action Barbie movie. You may also know him from the show Kim's Convenience if you're Canadian.
Xiran Jay Zhao
A Chinese-Canadian author, their first book, Iron Widow, was about China's only girl emperor. Their second book, Zachary Ying and the Dragon Emperor, is about Chinese mythology. Their third book is a sequel to Iron Widow.
CBC Television as you remember it
David Suzuki knows what's up.
This is getting so wild-
