If you're going to continue generalizing, at least differentiate between those "Chinese-Canadians" who were born here/immigrated decades ago, have little to no ties to Mainland China and work for a living (even if their parents are wealthy) vs those ostentatious China FOBs that started immigrating here mostly in the past decade that are powered by parents.
