You see Asian, I see Hong Kongers, Taiwanese, Filipino, Thai, Vietnamese, Mainland Chinese, Burmese, Malaysian, Mongolian, Cambodian etc. All of these countries have very different cultures and languages from one another, and they all have sizable populations in Metro Vancouver.

I knew someone would post this right away. Obviously I know "Asian" is comprised of all these various people. Also, "Asian" is a group of people, not a continent. Still, they all come from the same geographic part of the world and share similar charcateristics, and when it comes down to it, are basically the same race. Even when you break it down into every little sub-group and country that asians possibly come from - I still disagree that Vancouver is more multi-cultural. Where are the sizable Black, Latino, Greek, Italian populations that New York City has in addition to Middle Easterners and Asians?
