《The Frontliners》源自 Zahida Rahemtulla 协助难民安置的亲身经历
剧作家 Zahida Rahemtulla 深知在房价高涨的城市中,为难民找寻住所是多么艰钜的任务。在 2016 年,加拿大政府于 14 个月内重新安置 44,000 名叙利亚难民时,她当时就在温哥华从事相关工作。

很多温哥华居民并不知道某些邻居正努力尝试保留富有想像力的香港文化。这个曾经自由的港口城市孕育出以粤语为基础的当代媒体、艺术和娱乐产业。然而,自从香港在1997年回归中国以来,便一直经历普通话殖民化,近年的打压更日益严重,迫使数以百万计的民众上街抗议。这导致全国人民代表大会在2020年通过严苛的《香港国安法》,结束了承诺维持至2047年的高度自治。这令到香港人心灰意冷,更激怒了加拿大举国上下的香港侨民。

We would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish Nation), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation). With this acknowledgement, we thank the Indigenous peoples who still live on and care for this land.
