So in New Westminster, BC Canada a historian discovered that there was a law in the 1800's that said Chinese people couldn't get jobs. Apparently the law hadn't been lifted since then and everybody just forgot about it so the government had to apologize to the Chinese people about this. So they were breaking the law for some time than lol. They also repealed some other laws of the same nature.

The funny thing is I think Johnny lives in New West that's why I brought it up.

That is pretty damn funny, yet a bit sad in a way lol. The Chinese were the first Oriental immigrants and they got shafted pretty badly, but hey look at them now. Make more money and higher education >.>
