You're all caucasian?! 
Srsly tho, I'm always amazed as to the demographics on this site and how they change over the years.
Cars brought us together. But something else keeps us together, whether it's politics, arguing, buy&sell, or food 
My last name is Italian, but our thanks to WW1 and WW2, the area my paternal family came from is now modern day Croatia and Slovenia. Maternal family is English/Ukranian. I'm straight up lumberjack Canadian though. I play hockey, climb hills and am capable of building an emergency ice shelter if I had to. If that doesn't scream Canadiana, I don't know what does  | |

Both my parents came from Poland
My Mom came over in 1962 (she was 9)
My Dad came over in 1979 (He was 25)
Kind of funny the differences coming as a child vs adult makes. My mom has no accent at all, while my dad's is still pretty heavy after all these years. Also funny that out of all the Canadian dudes she dated, my mom decided to marry a Polish FOB.

Nonetheless, I was born in Vancouver but my Mom is from Hong Kong and my Dad is from Guangzhou. | Bro it's no more boring than anyone else's... Especially if you know the regions where your family came from. There's so much diversity in the regions of China! (before the great revolution)
My wife's family comes from Guilin on one side (via Shanghai) and I believe Xiamen on the other. Her mom's side fled to HK in the 50's and her dad's side was in HK a couple generations before that. This difference actually leads to contrary opinions on the current situation, and some very awkward moments.

Both parents should've been villagers from China but were born and raised in India. Grandparents fled there due to the Nanking Massacre.
Proud of my parents/family for essentially coming from the slums in Calcutta to make a decent life in Canada.

I speak English and Cantonese without accents because I grew up speaking both, I sound like a local wherever I go. I speak French like a fob though.. likely because I didn't learn it until high school.

I'm the opposite. I was born in Richmond, went back to HK when I was younger, but I was mostly in Canada from 4 y/o and on wards. But I speak English with a slight Chinese accent (can't say my THs, like three/free, thought/thot), and I speak Cantonese with a white guy accent (think Mayor Gregor).
I learned French in high school, but don't remember much but the basics. Ironically, I was really into "Tong Hua - Guang Liang" throughout high school, so my mando pronunciation is more on point than my Canto pronunciation.
