That they could not speak the Cantonese dialect of Chinese in a public setting--since these ladies were of Cantonese descent (if I am describing it properly)...

In Toronto, you have HK Chinese who are essentially upper middle class with a proper Catholic school education in Hong Kong and Canadian born/raised children who are top students in prep schools or highly academic public high schools. On the other hand you have newly arrived immigrants from mainland China or Vietnam who are trying very hard to make ends meet. You also have everything in between. I don't really see what these people have in common at all!

Well, I am seeing in my city is a unification of all those who are college educated... Folks that do not attend college are not a part of that "unity". But, folks that do, there may be some pockets here and there, but they are coming together more visibly so... That's just my observation... I'm on the West Coast.
