During the playing of the anthem of the People’s Republic of China, several B.C. members of the legislative assembly stood up alongside Chinese Consul General in Vancouver Yang Shu, as seen in a video taken at a recent event in that city.
The event, hosted by the Chinese Benevolent Association of Vancouver (CBA) on March 5, was a celebration of International Women’s Day. In an article published on its website, the CBA said that VIPs invited to the event included Yang and B.C. MLAs Janet Routledge, Michael Lee, and Teresa Wat.
