Canadian Chinese Cultural Society of Montreal In 1969 a group of citizens brought to reality some ideas that had been discussed for many years. From a rich, colourful, and exciting cultural background, the Chinese could unquestionably contribute to the mosaic that represents Canadian culture. In another long outstanding desire could be achieved: to create a common ground for people in the community to mix socially – free from political and religious differences. Thus, the Canadian Chinese Cultural Society of Montreal was born.
Canadian Chinese Cultural Society of Montreal was decided to attract Canadians both of Chinese and non-Chinese origin: members who would derive pleasure from programs fulfilling these objectives. The founding members were Rev. and Mrs. Paul Chan, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Chow, Dr. and Mrs. Roland Lee, Mr. James Chun and Dr. and Mrs. David T.W. Lin.
Canadian Chinese Cultural Society of Montreal has grown from a scattered few to over 400 members, without the aid of any special drive for membership. To achieve our objectives, more members are required, to work with the same dedication as the founding members do. The Canadian Chinese Cultural Society has attracted members from a cross-section of society, from all age groups, from different trades and professions, and from different religious and political beliefs.
