卑诗省政府和温哥华市政府承诺将建立一个加拿大华裔博物馆,以纪念卑诗省华裔过去和现在的贡献,每个人都应该去学习和了解更多有关加拿大华人的历史故事,这些故事在整个历史上造就了卑诗省今日的多元文化和经济繁荣,加拿大华人为此做了很多工作和贡献;

华联会牛华会长评注
加拿大华人联合总会在2020年7月份再次得到BC省政府的表彰和嘉奖。表彰信上除了感谢过去200年以来华人先侨为加拿大做出的各方面贡献以外,号召全省人民学习和了解华人的历史事迹和特殊贡献;旗帜鲜明的表达了反对种族歧视和仇恨的立场;重点表扬了华联会在2020年本省爆发新冠肺炎疫情期间捐赠大量的个人防护用品和为防疫工作做出的特别贡献。因为华联会将在7月26日举办2020中华传统文化节暨抗击新冠肺炎疫情全民行动的全球直播,BC省省督Janet Austin代表BC省政府宣布2020年7月20-26日为BC省的“中华传统文化周”。这是省政府继去年之后第二次给予华联会高度评价和表彰。这个荣耀属于华联会160多位理事、近200家团体会员单位和3万多个人会员的集体荣誉。历史是由人民创造的,而海外华人的历史正是由我们这些普通人创造出来的。以中华传统文化作为纽带链接世界各地的华人华侨,宣传和继承优秀的中华文化。在抗击新冠肺炎疫情的特殊时期,更需要所有人的团结和包容,才是我们早日战胜病毒回归正常生活的法宝。每个人都有超越自己梦想的潜力,作为华人社区的一份子,我知道我们有成为光明的可能,虽然前方的道路异常艰辛,但我们还是会选择那种滚烫的人生。
