thats true to an extent. dont know why you were failed really
they have no social needs to assimilate. they have the means to live in their ethnic pocket comfortably. especially in a place like no3 richmond. there is almost no need to operate in English (buying groceries, playing sports in a chinese dominiated community centre, buying a car from chinese speaking car dealerships). And when the time does come for a need to (such as needing some government documents filled out for you, they have the money and means to get it done for them)
and assimilate is a horrible word in OP's post to try and cooerce new immigrants to learn the culture. it should be integrate or at least co-inhabit. assimilation sounds like they want to strip them of their culture, which no one in their right minds would want.
If the government wants to play the blame game, they should be blaming themselves as well. for example, they could have implemented a basic LPI exam for all entrants as someone mentioned earlier. but NO, this would discourage foreign investment into Canada. They want their money, so of course they are going to bend a bit to get it. It usually starts from the top
