简论早期加拿大华侨妇女

Discussion on Canadian Chinese Women in the Early Era

19世纪后期,华侨妇女开始进入加拿大,商人李祥的妻子是第一个到达加拿大的中国妇女。华侨妇女从事的职业,主要是家庭妇女,另外还有一些妇女被迫做了妓女。加拿大华侨妇女的地位低下。加拿大一些反华分子曾以此等作为华侨罪证而大肆诬蔑华人,掀起反华风暴。

In the/ate 19^th century, Chinese women began to migrate into Canada. Businessman Li Xiang＇ s wife was the first Chinese woman landing in Canada. Most of Chinese women were housemaker women, and some were forced into prostitution. From these we can conclude that the Canadian Chinese womens＇ position in the early ear was low. Some anti - Chinese Canadian people made a storm of against Chinese with these as testimonies.
