Conclusion
While relocating to a new country such as Canada takes great effort, the benefits are even greater, as displayed through the immigration of the Chinese to British Columbia. In China, citizens faced poor conditions and a lack of law and order. Although thousands of kilometers away a new frontier, British Columbia, provided a solution to their hardships. After a long journey, the Chinese reached Canada, where they found new job opportunities and safety from war. Their lengthy voyages resulted in the beginning of better lives in Canada.
