Passages: Welcome Home To Canada - Plot & Excerpts
I’m glad that even while successfully managing your affairs, you have found the time to read and reread the words of Kong Zi. The two activities should be very complementary, the link between them being so fragile. You believe that those who don’t read Kong Zi are not real Chinese. You seem to be worrying yourself about the moral education of my children, who weren’t born in the land of their ancestors. You imagine them in the company of robots, efficient but without souls. I remember, in times past, you weren’t preoccupied with moral questions. But now you treat us differently because we’re in the West and we run the risk, more than you, of sinking into decadence. I don’t know what to say about this. I have the exact same feeling of powerlessness each time a Westerner comments loud and clear about continental China’s political system. I don’t think a foreign country should be judged according to second-hand information. We can’t form a sensible opinion as long as a country and its people are strangers to us, when we don’t deign to learn their language, and when we haven’t shed sweat and tears on their land.
