The tour                                            was also great because it had the perfect number of stops as not to overwhelm the participants.                                              Each stop was greatly detailed and included very relevant and exciting information. Great focus on                                         food."

                                CICS feedback: "The participants enjoyed finding out more about the history of the Chinese                                                 community in Canada and for sure they would like to know more. For LINC students who have only                                 been in Canada for a few years, the presentation certainly opened up a new area not touched on in                                     the language classes."
