Typo?

"In November 2006, an Agreement-in-Principle to Highlight Chinese Canadians' Contribution to Building Canada was announced. Former Prime Minister Paul Martin also gave a personal apology for this Act." When did this even happen actually? Last year? --User:Fitzwilliam 04:30, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Harper gave a speech apologizing for the Act yesterday, perhaps it was contained in the speech? Kilter 17:09, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rename

This article needs to be renamed to exclude the word "The". Deet 02:04, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging the article noted in the subtitle with this one, for these reasons:

  1. Skookum's comments in Talk:Anti-Chinese legislation in Canada are valid in my opinion.
  2. It's not like there is a lot of different types of legislation listed in the Anti article. It is limited to the immigration legislation, which is discussed in more detail (including the controversy) here.

Alternate proposal: merge to History of Chinese immigration to Canada. --Usgnus 06:13, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense to me. So, how do we now go about doing that? Do we just cut and paste the info and then turn the old page into a redirect? Deet 23:48, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly, but personally, I would change the merge tags and wait a week first. --Usgnus 23:57, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
