( |- v5 i/ ^* a* b3 LCity council voted Tuesday, 10-1 to take the next step in the process for allowing supervised injection sites and have a letter sent to Health Canada offering support. Fung said there’s considerable anger that the city’s Chinese community was not even aware council planned to discuss that letter until a few days before the public hearing which began Monday.

“We, the Chinese community, have eight percent of the population of Edmonton. I can’t see why we got ignored. That’s one thing we’re really upset about this important decision. It’s so important to the future of Chinatown.”" u8 \7 q. X; `7 ^% q' s

; G/ y! {. ~5 j- YThey are upset with the closest of the four sites, George Spady Centre is right on their doorstep and will hurt property values and drive away business. Fung fears the consequences. “Break into somebody’s house, or catch a senior or something? Where are they going to get the money to buy the drugs? Because the government is not going to provide them the money for the drugs. Where are they going to get the money from?”6 C  i6 h6 i) Y! l( \

要保护CHINATOWN,是每个国人的责任。老移民建设了CHINATOWN大家都要维护。你的家人和朋友从中国来你都要领他们看看外国的中国城。。。

中国城是以前种族歧视的产物,我对是否值得保护也有疑虑,不过如果能够提醒世人别忘记这段历史,另外方便大家购物和吸引游客,还是有保留的价值的。
