520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc In the past decade, the People’s Republic of China has become the leading source country of immigrants to Canada. However, little is known about the experience of Chinese gay immigrants in Canada. Using narratives collected through a qualitative study, we show the way in which Chinese gay men construct their experience of immigration in Canada. Unlike the national discourse that claims Canada is a friendly nation for members of the LGBTTQ community, the experiences of Chinese gay immigration present a different story. As racialised gay men, they continue to be subjected to social violence in Canada – albeit differently from what they experienced in China. The analysis demonstrates the complexity of social marginalisation experienced by these men, the understanding of which is essential for social workers to engage in practice with them that is socially transformative.
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc 過去十年裡,中華人民共和國已經成為加拿大的主要移民來源國。然而,我們對中國同性戀移民的經驗所知甚少。我們匯整的質化研究敘事,顯示出中國男同性戀移民如何建構他們的加拿大移民經驗。有別於加拿大論述所號稱的性向多元友善國度,研究發現中國男同性戀移民的經驗並非如此。男同性戀有色人種持續受迫於加拿大的社會暴力,儘管方式與他們在中國所面對的不同。我們的分析展現出他們所遭逢社會邊緣化的複雜性,而理解這種複雜性對於轉化性的社會工作實踐而言至關重要。
