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).

History
Vancouverite, Debra Sloan gained an interest in ceramics early, in her teen years, and her passion for the practice has remained with her throughout her life. Her education in ceramics is a mix of self-taught informal learning, as well as formal learning, including studying at the Vancouver School of Art in the early 80s and later receiving a Bachelor of Fine Art from Emily Carr University in the early 2000s. Her work has been exhibited regionally, nationally, and internationally and she has participated in numerous artist residencies, and is the recipient of numerous awards and scholarships, with projects funded by British Columbia Arts Council and Canada Council for the Arts. Closer to home, Debra instructed sculpture classes at the Burnaby Shadbolt Center for the Arts, where she worked for over two decades. Over the years, Debra also took to researching, writing and publishing about the history of ceramics in British Columbia and has worked with colleagues to build a Registry of B.C. ceramicists. Recently, in 2017 and 2018, she was involved in the West Vancouver Museum’s retrospective exhibition of Thomas Kakinuma’s work, writing the catalogue, “The Ceramic Art of Thomas Kakinuma.”

This was a heart the Armstrong family made in the last week of March when things were starting to get very scary and they wanted to share their message of love and support to the world. The heart was decorated on one side by Sophie (age 1), Kimberly's youngest daughter (of two). The heart remained on the window until mid July 2020.

Caption from metadata for 535-1958-1: "As one of the few places musicians can get their brass and woodwind instruments repaired, Sandro has enough work to keep himself and another technician, Ed Goertzen, busy. He says his busiest time is during the summer, when school programs send their instruments in for repairs and maintenance."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-2: "Sandro carefully eyes the progess he's making on a large dent in a French Horn. The instruments he repairs range from family hand-me-downs, to heavily-used horns from school music programs, to expensive, hand-crafted instruments used by professional musicians."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-3: "When Sandro Massullo realized he didn't have the chops to play music professionally, a school counsellor suggested he try his hand at repairing instruments. After studying his craft at an American school, and serving an apprenticeship, he worked for a Vancouver music shop for 14 years. He went out on his own last year, opening his storefront shop on Hastings St., in North Burnaby."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-4: ""Sometimes you have to make it worse, before you can make it better," says Sandro, as he carefully taps out a large dent in a school's French Horn."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-6: "Sandro takes a trumpet for a test blow in his North Burnaby storefront."
Caption from metadata for 535-1958-7: "The repair of brass instruments often requires special, custom-made tools that will wind through the pipes and valves. Sandro sets up just such a tool, as he prepares to work on a damaged French Horn."
