 Xinyin Kuala Lumpur. Happy New Year everyone! This month, Chinese communities in Canada and around the world mark the Lunar New Year. C'est le moment de célébrer les nouveaux départs et de réfléchir à nos objectifs pour l'année à venir. 2019 is the year of the Earth Pig, a symbol of good fortune, honesty and success. As friends and families kick off the new year together and celebrate new beginnings, it's also a chance to honour the many contributions Chinese Canadians have made to our country. From coast to coast to coast, Chinese Canadians build a stronger, more inclusive Canada every day. From our family to yours, Sophie and I wish everyone celebrating peace, health, love and good fortune this year and beyond. Gong hei fa choy!
