after awhile, they moved to Canada to enjoy the cultural mosiac that exists here. In Canada, they're able to find more of their people's infrastructure, while it be temples, support Groups etc, so it's similiar to where they came from, but with all the benefits of a first world country.
maybe i should go spend some time in canada, but when I look around here (granted, here = coastal cities of california) I see plenty of cultural diversity. Asians are not all lumped together, different nationalities all have their own neighborhoods (sure, some people call them ghettos, but they are mainly middle class) in downtown San Francisco. San Jose supports a range of Middle-Eastern and Indian cultures, and I see temples all over the place. even in the suburban parts of the peninsula I see temples for different religions and different cultures in different neighborhoods. In LA.. well, anyone who is looking for cultural acceptance in LA should have their head examined. San Diego has much the same cultural diversity, but with Hispanics and Portugese instead of Easterners.
I dont think its that the support infrastructure is missing here, I think its an attidute difference. I suppose I would have to spend some time in Canada to really understand.
