溫哥華余風采堂會員出席溫哥華華埠春節慶會
溫哥華余風采堂會員應邀出席由溫哥華中華會館、大溫哥華中華文化中心、溫哥華華埠商會、中僑互助會、
雲埠洪門機構及加拿大鐵城崇義總會聯同多個僑團及其他族裔團體共同舉辦之「二○二六年溫哥華華埠春節慶會」。
慶會於丙午馬年正月初六，星期日（二月二十二日）晚上六時，假原富大海鮮酒家舊址舉行。
溫哥華華埠春節慶會籌委會日前表示，今年因華埠富大海鮮酒家停業而面臨不少挑戰。
儘管如此，當晚的「開年飯」千人宴仍選址於富大酒家舊址舉行，並特別另聘廚師團隊主理筵席，使本屆「開年飯」更具創意與新意。
晚宴廚務由加拿大華人餐飲總會承辦，精心籌劃，務求為來賓呈獻豐盛佳餚。
當晚加拿大三級政要蒞臨出席，晚宴在中加兩國國歌聲中揭開序幕。
節目內容豐富多彩，包括醒獅匯演、新春賀辭、歌舞表演及春節聚餐等，現場氣氛熱烈喜慶，洋溢著濃厚的新春歡樂氣
息。
值此中加關係回暖破冰之際，本次活動凝聚僑心、促進交流，為中加友好注入新動力。
中國駐溫哥華總領館曾智代總領事向領區僑胞及各界友人致以新春問候，並分享中方對加實施免簽政策的利好消息。
他表示，溫哥華華埠春節慶會連續舉辦五十餘年，見證了卑詩省與中國之間深厚的歷史情誼；
期盼與各界攜手，落實兩國領導人會晤的重要共識，進一步推動雙邊交流與合作。
晚宴菜式豐盛，包括極品佛跳牆、紅運當頭金蹄踏、碧波馳騁雙鮮匯、魚躍龍門喜盈舟、瑤柱海鮮炒飯、
道口燒雞、大盤羊肉、金湯芙蓉龍蝦、鮮菌什蔬、家鄉水餃，以及精美甜品與駿馬迎春五福匯等佳餚，
寓意吉祥如意、福運臨門。惟因場地空間略顯擁擠，加上部分菜餚上桌時溫度稍有不足，尚有改進空間。
溫哥華余風采堂同仁謹祝各界人士馬年吉祥、闔家幸福、萬事勝意。

Vancouver Chinatown Spring
Festival Dinner Gala
Members of the Yee Fung Toy Society of Vancouver
were invited to attend the "2026 Vancouver
Chinatown Spring Festival Celebration," jointly
organized by the Vancouver Chinese Benevolent
Association, the Chinese Cultural Centre of
Greater Vancouver, the Vancouver Chinatown
Merchants Association, S.U.C.C.E.S.S., The
Chinese Freemasons of Vancouver, and the Shon
Yee Association of Canada, along with several
other overseas Chinese and ethnic organizations.
The celebration took place on the evening of
Sunday, February 22, the sixth day of the first
lunar month in the Year of the Horse, at 6:00
PM, at the former site of Floata Seafood
Restaurant.
The organizing committee of the Vancouver
Chinatown Lunar New Year Celebration recently
stated that this year they faced considerable
challenges due to the closure of the Chinatown
Floata Seafood Restaurant. Despite this, the
evening's 'New Year Banquet' for a thousand
guests was still held at the former site of
Floata Seafood Restaurant, with a specially
hired team of chefs to prepare the feast, making
this year's banquet more creative and
innovative. The dinner was managed by the
Chinese Canadian Catering Association,
meticulously planned to present guests with a
sumptuous meal.
That evening, three levels Canadian government
officials attended, and the banquet began with
the national anthems of both Canada and China.
The program was rich and varied, including a
lion dance performance, New Year greetings,
singing and dancing shows, and a Chinese New
Year dinner. The atmosphere on site was lively
and festive, filled with the joyous spirit of
the Lunar New Year.
At this time of warming and thawing of
China-Canada relations, this event brings
together the Chinese community, promotes
exchanges, and injects new momentum into
China-Canada friendship. Acting Consul General
Zeng Zhi of the Chinese Consulate General in
Vancouver extended his New Year greetings to
overseas Chinese and friends from various
sectors, shared the good news about China's visa
exemption policy for Canada, and remarked that
the over-five-decade-long history of the
Vancouver Chinatown Spring Festival celebrations
stands as a testament to the profound friendship
between BC and China. He expressed his hope to
work hand in hand with all sectors in the
consular district to implement the important
common understandings reached by the leaders of
the two countries and to foster stronger
bilateral exchanges and cooperation.
Members of the Yee Fung Toy Society of Vancouver
sincerely wish everyone a prosperous and healthy
new year, family happiness, and success in all
endeavors.

The YFT Society of Vancouver
Annual Gala Dinner and Scholarship Awards
Ceremony
On Saturday, April 4, 2026, the Yee Fung Toy
Society of Vancouver proudly hosted its Annual
Gala Dinner at the Pink Pearl Restaurant in
Chinatown, alongside the 2024–2025 Scholarship
Awards Ceremony. The event brought together a
distinguished group of honoured guests,
community leaders, members, and friends. With
sixteen tables filled, the evening unfolded in a
warm, festive atmosphere, reflecting the
Society’s deep kinship ties and strong sense of
community.
Among the esteemed attendees were Consul Huang
Shun and Consul Liu Diyi from the Consulate
General of the People's Republic of China in
Vancouver, Mr. Cai Hongan, Vice Chairman of the
Chinese Benevolent Association of Vancouver, and
Mrs. Carla Yee. The event also welcomed guests
from the Ma and Tse family Societies, leaders of
local Chinese organizations, and many local clan
members with their families. All participants
came together to celebrate this grand occasion.
This year’s scholarship award ceremony was
jointly hosted by Mr. George KC Yee, Director of
the Education Fund Committee, and Mr. Larry Yee,
Deputy Director. Their leadership ensured the
event was both solemn and warm. The Yee Fung Toy
Society of Vancouver has long embraced the
principle of “supporting the next generation and
nurturing talents,” consistently assisting
members’ children and outstanding students
through its scholarship program. The aim is to
inspire the younger generation to study
diligently, stay true to their aspirations,
prepare for the future, and ultimately
contribute to their families and society.
Each scholarship recognizes not only academic
achievement but also reflects the deep hopes of
elders for the younger generation. The Yee Fung
Toy Society of Vancouver encourages all
award-winning students to remain grateful, carry
forward the love and trust of their clan, and
strive to build a future for themselves.
Scholarships were awarded this year to eleven
students for their outstanding academic
performance. The recipients are:
• Elementary School
Group (1 student): Leah Yee.
• Secondary School
Group (6 students): Alexander
Yee, Colton Yee, Emma Yee, Sherman Yee, Marcus
Yee and Maddox Yee.
• University Group
(Four members): Danny Yu, Hailey Yu, Shawn Yee,
Christopher Yu.
Mrs. Carla Yee personally presented two essay
contest awards to Sherman Yee and Hailey Yu.
Both students impressed the judges with essays
that were sincere in intention, offered unique
perspectives, and featured smooth, natural
writing. Their works stood out as the best
essays of the year, highlighting their critical
thinking and literary ability.
Mrs. Carla Yee has been a long-time supporter of
educational initiatives, encouraging students to
strive for excellence through her actions. Her
selfless dedication has contributed to the
growth and progress of many students and
inspired younger generations. The Society
expresses its heartfelt gratitude and hopes her
love and spirit will continue to benefit more
young students.
Some scholarship recipients were unable to
attend the ceremony due to being out of town or
prior commitments, including Maddox Yee, Danny
Yu, Hailey Yu, Christopher Yu, and Shawn Yee.
The school sends its regards and sincere
congratulations to these students.
The gala dinner featured an exciting raffle
draw, with prizes generously provided by
directors of the Yee Fung Toy Society of Canada
and Vancouver, as well as Mr. Anthony Cheung,
Senior Investment Advisor at the Royal Bank of
Canada. A special “Money Tree” segment allowed
winners to pick prize envelopes from the tree,
adding a fresh and fun element to the evening
and enhancing the lively atmosphere. The Society
extends sincere thanks to all sponsors for their
generosity, which made the prize draw especially
memorable.
The evening concluded successfully with laughter
and warm wishes, further strengthening bonds
among clan members and demonstrating the Yee
Fung Toy Society of Vancouver’s commitment to
valuing education and preserving cultural
heritage.
