On the August 8, 2008 weekend, the Victoria Chinese Commerce Association will host and present events to celebrate 150 years of achievement of Chinese Canadians in Canada. Victoria, British Columbia, (which the Chinese call ‘Dai Fau’ or Big Port) is where the early Chinese created the first Chinatown. Historically, Chinatowns were the focal points of the early Chinese communities, each being a “haven” and a base from which new immigrants could begin their new lives.
