Prism Roundtable --- South Surrey Chinese Community Against supportive/complex-care housing
We often complain about worsening public safety, strained community resources, and policies drifting further away from public opinion. But real change rarely comes from venting—it comes from political participation, policy engagement, and organized action.
AOCC will host a Youtube live event on Saturday, Feb 7, 3:00–5:00 PM (Pacific Time)—our first Prism Roundtable — South Surrey Chinese Community Against supportive/complex-care housing: Why Political Participation and Policy Advocacy Can Change a Community’s Future
This event will focus on a recent, inspiring real-life victory: In November 2025, the White Rock–South Surrey Chinese community, together with residents of multiple ethnic backgrounds, through large-scale mobilization, protests, public hearing participation, and voter pressure, successfully compelled Surrey City Council to unanimously reject (9:0) the provincial government's proposed “supportive/complex-care housing” project (widely feared to include drug consumption elements). This was not only a major win for community safety but also a landmark moment of organized political participation and advocacy by the Chinese community after years of underrepresentation.
We will share key lessons—from community mobilization to influencing decision-making—and discuss:
What policy consequences can result from long-term underrepresentation in politics?
Why do communities so often lose their voice on critical issues?
Is “speaking out without party affiliation is enough” really workable? Why can’t politics be avoided?
How ordinary people can create real impact within the system: door-knocking and outreach, voter mobilization, cross-ethnic coalition-building, and issue-based organizing.
Political participation is not just about “showing up”—it’s about shaping policy, and when the time is right, supporting and fielding community-backed representatives—speaking up, running, and winning at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels.
Format: YouTube live roundtable discussion + live Q&A interaction on YouTube
AOCC warmly invites everyone who cares about community safety and public policy to register, and we welcome active comments and questions during the livestream. The YouTube link will be emailed to all registered participants before the event begins.
We look forward to seeing you in the livestream!

AOCC Special Seminar Announcement
Yi LuoThe Origins and Challenges of Multiculturalism in Canada
Location: Richmond, BC, Canada
Date and Time:
Saturday, November 9, 2025, 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM (Vancouver Time)
6:00PM - 8:00PM (Toronto Time)
Format: In person + Online
Guest Speaker:
Yi Luo Urban Planner and Architectural Designer
About the Speaker:
With over two decades of experience in architecture and urban planning in both Canada and China, Yi Luo brings a unique perspective to the discussion. He previously served as the head of the design team at IBI Group in Vancouver before establishing and managing his own architectural firm in China for ten years, where he led numerous residential, commercial, and mixed-use urban projects.
His extensive cross-cultural work and life experiences have provided him with deep insights into social structures, value identity, and urban forms within multicultural contexts. He is passionate about upholding core societal values and civil order while respecting diversity.
Seminar Background and Summary:
Since the implementation of Canada's multiculturalism policy in the 1980s, significant challenges have emerged over time. This has been particularly pronounced under the current Liberal government's immigration policies, which have led to a large influx of immigrants and temporary residents. Navigating how to preserve core values and traditional civil order within this multicultural framework has become an undeniable and pressing issue.
This seminar will explore the historical origins of Canadian multiculturalism, its policy evolution, and the primary challenges it faces today. Through an in-depth analysis of the cultural interaction and integration among different ethnic groups, we will contemplate the future direction and cohesion of our diverse society.
MP Chak Au - Roundtable Meeting
MP Chak AuNotice of Roundtable Meeting with Member of Parliament Chak Au
It has been nearly half a year since the federal election, and public safety issues in our community, such as the proliferation of drugs and the state of public order, have not only failed to be effectively controlled but are also worsening.
An Indigenous tribe's claim to Aboriginal title over an area in Richmond was supported by the Supreme Court of British Columbia in August 2025, which will pose a significant challenge to the property of the city's residents.
In the face of these issues, we invite you to join Chak Au, the Federal Member of Parliament for the Richmond Centre-Marpole constituency, to discuss solutions. We look forward to your attendance.
Meeting Time: October 18, 2025, 6:00pm - 8:00pm (Toronto Time)，3：00pm-5：00pm（Vancouver Time）
Meeting Location: Richmond Centre-Marpole Constituency

The origins and core values of conservative ideology.
The core tenets of classical liberalism and the potential for its integration with conservatism (examining the alliance between the Trump MAGA movement and Elon Musk's philosophies within the American context).
