From the Paper:

"Urbanism is well known to have sometimes negative consequences for people. This can be ironic, especially for families that immigrate to Canada to give their children the benefits of growing up in a modern Canadian city. Other families, such as some Asian families, send their children to live and study in Canada, while the parents work hard at home and send money to their children. Unfortunately, the outcome is not always as pleasant as the families expect. The community I am examining is young Asian males in Vancouver. I was attracted to study this community by a story I read in the Vancouver Sun."
