It's legal to do it in Quebec. English is not only an official language of Canada but that spoken by the majority of its citizens.

My issue with this is that allowing such signage to continue is just a further step towards isolating a community. Why venture outside of your community if you have no need to and can't function outside of it anyway ? There's tolerance and then there's a lack of common sense. This can only end one way if something's not done about it now. Either Richmond wants to be a part of Canada or a Chinese colony. Seems to me that it wants to be part of Canada so English (or French for that matter) should be present on those signs. Canada isn't China. I should know since I currently reside in China.

Historically, groups that didn't integrate were distrusted and eventually oppressed. You don't have to search very far and wide to find an example but the most prominent one that comes to mind is Jews in Europe. Granted, we didn't ask to be mistreated but part of it was that we often refused to integrate if it could be helped. That didn't change much until the 19th century and by then it was too late.
