like what kind of effort does it take to make this a story on their part?
i could get shit kicked by a Mc D's employee for returning a burger and i'd probably just shake it off and go home, yet from a misunderstanding over an order it's a reported story?

One common trait about Mainland Chinese is, a lot of them have this sense of entitlement that everyone else around them should cater to their inability to speak languages other than Mandarin. A lot of them also feel little incentive to learn languages other than Mandarin.
On the other hand, do you think the McD manager kicking her out stuff actually happened? Or was there some other sort of misunderstanding / back story behind it? It'd be nice to hear what the other side of the story is like...
Two official languages, English and French. There are no requirements to do anything above and beyond that.
Now, I would certainly do everything I can to help her out as a human being with compassion, but to go and make this stink... Stupid.
If you come to Canada and try this shit on, there should be repercussions - did they not know Canada has two official languages before immigrating here? Yes, we're soft and allow large areas of non-English speakers, but that doesn't mean you should be able to demand it.
How are they trying to make this a charter challenge? The freedom to speak mandarin? The inability to have transactions in mandarin is some sort of discrimintation? No one is restricting the ability or right to speak mandarin, Mcdonalds is a privately owned business, dont like the service? Go somewhere else. This shit is so stupid, common sense is becoming some sort of super power. Posted via RS Mobile
I demand an apology from them for not writing the sign in English. Do they expect everyone looking at that picture to read chinese? I understand "Respect" and "Charter of Rights and Freedoms" but wtf does that sign on the left say?
This doesn't make Canada look bad, it makes all us Chinese look like snobs and little whiney bitches (which, admittedly, some are)
I have a feeling this lady did what most other "self entitled" mainlanders did. scream and yell because of one little problem. OMG YOU FORGOT MY DIET COCK YOU LAZY SON OF A BITCH YOU SHOULD LOSE YOUR JOB I DRIVE A MERCEDES BMW LEXUS M450h xDRIVE WITH LEATHER SEAT WORTH MORE THAN YOUR HOUSE OMG YOU LAZY YOU DESERVE TO DIE MY HOUSE WORTH 2 MIL AND MY HANDBAG WORTH 1K YOU WORTH LESS THAN ME GIVE ME MY DIET COCK WTF
shut the fuck up, you make us Asians look bad, like we are whiney little bitch ass snobs.
just shut the fuck up
/rant
anyways that sign on the left is something about "only if you come out and stand, would you be able to stand up"

Yeah, I don't know how they plan on doing that. In general, the Charter only applies to the government and does not apply in a situation where you only have private, non-state actors.
Arrrgh this shit pisses me off so fucking much. I am the first to support somebody's right to speak mandarin or any other language that they choose but that does not fucking equate to them being guaranteed the ability to conduct their entire life in that language. I hope this gets squashed ASAP, my tax dollars are paying to fight this nonsense.

I could care less what language they speak, but like I said in the sign thread, my cousins child had to be removed from the school he was at because he couldn't speak Chinese/mandarin. inside the class everyone could speak, but once the recess/lunch bell went, they all magically forgot how to speak English and made him an outcast.

way to fucking giving...20 years from now English will be extinct in the lower mainland. makes me wish we were as strict as quebec was in the article about the girl being fired for not speaking French in the lunch room at grocery store.

why should they adapt? I tried that argument many times on RS and every response I would get was "why should we adapt when we can get by without learning English". I believe in the Richmond sign thread I was told that I should learn Chinese so I can adapt to them and eat and order off a menu in Richmond. granted its a Chinese restaurant, I shouldn't have to have a translator to pick items off a menu when they don't have pictures or any English underneath.

also, privately owned business; mcdicks can refuse service to whoever they want
yup, they can refuse anyone they want. they should eat elsewhere. but to stop making your Canada their china is a joke, its to late for that.
wasn't it in Australia many years ago when a boat full of illegal immigrants was heading there, and once the prime minister found out he had the boat turn right around and told them to get the fuck out?
this country needs to grow some balls and set limits and to quit being a pussy government and say "oh you want to come to Canada? suuuure, as long as you have money you can do whatever you want here!!". no wonder half my friends want to move to the southern states.
I bet his Canada shirt still has the creases in it.
im surprised at the responses and how nobody has tried to defend her and call everyone else racist for saying we shouldn't accommodate to her lol.

I heard from a friend that was at the location eating that they asked her to leave because she was causing a shitshow yelling in broken English and Chinese causing a scene. Guess they didn't mention that in the article. Probably a one sided story, would love to see the cameras from the incident. Posted via RS Mobile
