Immigration Into Canada Abstract This paper is concerned with the recent wave of Hong Kong immigrants into Vancouver.

Native Women’s Association of Canada (2013) explained how this has tragically led to the number of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls in Canada being excessively high.
