Asian Heritage Month was observed differently this year with the COVID19 pandemic interrupting many celebrations, including several events normally held annually by the Senate and House of Commons. I had the opportunity to have a conversation with Ms. Queenie Choo, CEO of S.U.C.C.E.S.S., one of the largest non-profit social service organizations in British Columbia.
