  • The Chinese Community in Markham
    Cultural Diversity and Museums Publications The Chinese Community in Markham Dan Liu, Project Intern Birgitta MacLeod, Manager, Markham District Historical Museum The Canadian Image project provided a good opportunity for the Markham District Historical Museum to help foster understanding among Markham residents, build a documentary collection on the city's Chinese community; and also show the relevance of the museum to our society. The project focused on the Chinese community in Markham for a good reason- in the past decade, it has grown dramatically. The 1991 Statistics Canada survey notes 21,910 Chinese residents, about 15 per cent of the city's population, and the most recent studies estimate the number will grow to 37,947 by the year 2000. This rapid growth has led to a visible transformation in the social and cultural life of the area. Considerable public interest has been expressed in both the Chinese community and in Markham's changing character. We launched this project because our museum' s mandate is to document and preserve the patrimony of the city and district and because the Chinese community is a significant part of Markham. We also saw the opportunity to serve the public by fostering under- standing both of Markham history and its changing social life. Our project had two parts: 1) an extensive exploration of existing statistical information on the Chinese community and 2) a recording of oral history accounts of the memory, traditions and experiences of immigration and settlement in Markham. Statistical information drawn from government and Chinese community resources provided a baseline picture of the Chinese community as well as key contacts to Chinese organizations and leaders.

The full Coat of Arms is displayed at ceremonial occasions such as Convocation, and is used by the Chancellor, the titular head of the University. On the shield is a representation of the topography of Alberta rendered in the colours of the University. At the base is a prairie wheat field symbolizing Alberta’s agricultural industry. The wavy gold line above suggests the hills and rivers of Alberta and, in particular, the setting of the University campus. The top of the shield is in gold and separated from the rest of the shield by a line suggesting the Rocky Mountains. The book of learning dominates the design. On the crest is a Grand-Duc d’Amérique, or Great Horned Owl, the provincial bird and an accepted symbol of knowledge.

On behalf of WPGA’s Board of Directors, I am pleased to introduce the report, which includes our strategic and operational objectives, key performance indicators, and our community’s volunteer and financial support. In August 2019, we welcomed Stephen Anthony as WPGA’s third Head of School. A founding faculty member and longtime Head of Senior School, Stephen stepped into the headship role well prepared, supported by the Board and an experienced Leadership Team. Stephen and the Leadership Team guided WPGA through the Ministry mandated school closure in March 2020 and subsequent Ministry-directed transitions, from Stage 4 in April and Stage 3 in June to Stage 2 this fall. At the core of our plans is the safety of all community members, continuity of student learning and care, and the ability to quickly shift between stages, if directed by the Ministry. Although the pandemic was paramount in defining 2019–2020, we did enjoy a relatively normal first half of the school year.
