I restored the bits about airline service, for two reasons:
I suspect Cathay Pacific began its operations in Vancouver long before 1992, and I would like to get info on the Vancouver operations of the Taiwanese airlines, China Airlines and EVA Air. WhisperToMe ( talk) 06:59, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
This article has all the very same problems that the Chinese Canadians in British Columbia article has, and the reasons are laid out on the talkpage there; they have been ignored by the shepherding editor here who is unconcerned with and doesn't care about WP:NPOV which is policy. Numerous guidelines are violated, I won't waste my breath; but somewhere along teh way someone who does not share the biased views and scholastic premises that the OWN author of this article has laid out, and will recognize the incredibly bad English composition, and the use of pasting together cherrypicked items to build SYNTH/POV...so very obvious. "Honestly I think these tags are more than deserved", to paraphrase the edit comment of their illicit removal from the CCinBC article by the sole author here who successfully lobbied to have me blocked so he was not 'interfered with'. What has been interfered with is BC history with a very clear ethnopolitical bias and soapbox agenda.
I am leaving Wikipedia; I will not waste my efforts any longer for a place where travesty like this was mollycoddled and nurtured in violations of several guidelines and also of the NPOV policy'. this article is a political tract rife with synthesis and cherrypicked sources, and distortions of others. tiresome and juvenile and a good demonstration of why Wikipedia is not real encyclopedia but more and more a compilation of jejune essays - and outright propaganda.

While this article is titled "Chinese Canadians in Greater Vancouver", the article problematically conflates Chinese Canadians, Chinese ethnicity, and Chinese immigration when they are not all the same. Not everyone of Chinese descent or birth in Metro Vancouver is Chinese Canadian, which specifically refers to Canadians of Chinese descent/ethnicity. Many Chinese immigrants are recent immigrants who have not yet received their citizenship or are temporary expatriates. In addition, not every immigrant from China would be considered "ethnically Chinese" and not every ethnic Chinese immigrant came from China (ex. immigrants from Hong Kong while it was still UK territory comprise a significant proportion of ethnic Chinese in Metro Vancouver). Furthermore, many Chinese Canadians are born and raised in Canada and have no connection to China aside from ancestry. I think this is something that the article fails to mention and needs to clarify further. Dankmemes2 ( talk) 06:23, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
