- Notes
- There are two versions of the book: English and Simplified Chinese (left, below) and the other in English and Traditional Chinese (right, below).
- From the late 1800s to the present day, Chinese Canadians have made Burnaby into a more vibrant and livable city. Rooted: Chinese Canadian Stories in Burnaby brings together a collection of diverse stories and photographs from the community, celebrating the legacy and contributions of Burnaby’s Chinese Canadian community spanning over a century. This coffee-table book features oral histories and interviews with descendants of multigenerational family farms, green grocers, corner stores, restaurants, and places of worship. Also included are archival research and community perspectives on anti-Asian racism, community activism, courage, and resilience.
- The publication has been timed to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the introduction of the Chinese Exclusion Act by the Government of Canada in 1923. This federal legislation followed decades of discriminatory legislation by Canada’s federal, provincial and municipal governments that targeted Chinese Canadians by limiting opportunities to live, work and raise families in Canada. The Chinese Exclusion Act banned almost all migration from China and remained in place until 1947. Publishing this book in 2023 is an effort by the City of Burnaby to recognize the impact of discriminatory legislation on Chinese Canadians in our community, including discriminatory bylaws and practices implemented by Burnaby’s early municipal government.
- Edited by Denise Fong (Lead Researcher), Jane Lemke (Burnaby Village Museum Curator) and Lisa Codd (City of Burnaby Heritage Planner).

- Scope and Content
- Photograph of graduation cake created by Punk Rock Pastries for Devin Joyce in honour of his graduation from Moscrop Secondary School in Burnaby. Cake includes a graduate in cap and gown, holding a diploma in one hand and "flipping a bird" with his other hand. The rectagular surface below the graduate cake includes the words "2020" and rocks covered in COVID-19 germs. Cake is on display on top of a table.
- History
- Due to Covid-19 pandemic, Devin Joyce was unable to physically enjoy his high school graduation at Moscrop Secondary School along with his classmates. Devin and his classmates had to graduate using a virtual platform instead. Due to these cancellations, the family ordered a one-of-a kind Grad cake from Punk Rock Pastries to reflect this unusual time.
