RUSSIAN KOREANS, No. 109, JANUARY 2009

Established in March last year in the center of Toronto, Ontario, the Association of Russian-speaking Koreans of Canada is by far the most organized community of Koreans of the former USSR in the far abroad. This is evidenced, in particular, by recent events.

Active members of the Association: Inna PAK, Alexey VAN, Lyudmila KHEGAI

— Lyudmila Sergeevna, congratulations on your public position! What was the expected event or surprise for you?

- This was not the expected event. Moreover, this is not my area at all, but the events lined up so that the proposal to put forward my candidacy for this position did not arouse objections from me.

— Tell us about the meeting, what issues did you consider?

— An expanded meeting of the Council was held, at which the application of the incumbent president for resignation was considered, his report on the work done was heard, and some members of the Council were replaced.

— How did your predecessor Evgeny Kogay ( RK #101, March 2008, Russian Canada ) explain his decision to retire?

- He explained this by the heavy workload at his main job, but, remaining a member of the Council, he said that he was ready to help the new staff where he could be useful.

— Do you have your own idea of ​​the Association's priorities?

— You know, unlike similar organizations in the republics of the former Soviet Union, our tasks are somewhat different. First of all, we would like to declare the existence of such a community of Koreans (I even find it difficult to find the right word for designation), who for the most part think and speak Russian, were brought up in Russian culture, but at the same time look like Koreans, and in everyday life they adhere to Korean customs. Since our Association was created, first of all, counting on our children, we would like, of course, that Canadian realities do not overshadow our values ​​for them. In addition, I really want to create as soon as possible a kind of club for communication between people of the older generation who came here to their children and were deprived of their usual communication. Not knowing English, many of them feel quite uncomfortable and one of our priorities is to provide them with an opportunity for a normal social life, so to speak.

— What immediate tasks do you see as top priorities?

— In addition to what I have already said, we will have to look for funds to carry out the tasks set, premises, and most importantly, find out how many Russian-speaking Koreans now live in Canada and create our own asset in each of the provinces.

- Please introduce your assistants, members of the council. Is the current structure of the Association optimal?

- First of all, this is the Chairman of the Council Alexei Alekseevich Wang, whom we asked to remain in this position, as one of the inspirers of the creation of the Association and the most experienced activist of this movement. After the abolition of some staff positions, Inna Pak was elected Executive Director, who, in fact, now bears the main burden of work. This is a very energetic, competent and very responsible assistant, thanks to whom we have already received a lot of useful information over the past week and agreed on useful meetings.

— Ontario is known to be an international province. Moreover, about 200 thousand Russian-speaking citizens of the former Soviet republics live here. In what areas would cooperation with them be useful for the Association?

— Yes, indeed, national associations of Ukrainians, Jews, Tatars, Belarusians and others have been successfully working here for a long time. We are going to cooperate with many of them. Since Canada is, in principle, a country of immigrants, interethnic interaction and assistance here is quite common.

- There is a large South Korean diaspora in Canada, do you manage to find mutual understanding with it?

— Of course. The South Korean diaspora treats us very friendly and, one might say, no-kindred. We receive invitations to all their events, and after the New Year we have a meeting with the chairman of their Association and the Consul of the Republic of Korea, which, I hope, will be fruitful.

— Please explain the features of Canadian legislation regarding national diasporas.

- In short, this is a position that is interested in the development of national diasporas, expressed in the multifaceted support from the Government of Canada. This is a system of issuing various grants, and assistance in the implementation of various cultural events, and much more, aimed at interethnic cooperation.

- It can be said with a high degree of certainty that the diaspora of Russian-speaking Koreans in Canada will only grow due to the influx of emigrants from Russia and the CIS countries. What new tasks for the Association can be foreseen in this regard?

- I can't say that it will be something radically new. The primary task remains to assist new arrivals in adaptation, providing them with legal and other necessary advice. In a word, the necessary set of measures that will help them fit into a new life as quickly and painlessly as possible.

— Tell us about yourself. What did you do before? Where did they live? How did you end up in Canada?

— I am a philologist by education, I graduated from Samarkand State University at 1974 year. Recently in Tashkent was the beginning. Department of Information at the State Property Committee of Uzbekistan and before leaving for Canada, she worked in the magazine "BELLA TERRA". Came here 6 years ago to visit my daughter. Like all immigrants, I had to do a variety of jobs. Now again at the usual work lit. editor in the Russian newspaper "Family Circle".

Regional figures above based on Canadian census. South Korean government figures based on consular registrations. All South Korean citizens intending to reside overseas for more than 90 days are required by law to register with the South Korean consulate nearest their overseas residence. Failure to register can have negative consequences for taxes and real estate purchases, and overseas-born children who are not registered may have difficulty enrolling in South Korean schools. [14]

Korean Canadians are Canadians of Korean descent. According to South Korea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, there are 223,322 Koreans or people of Korean ancestry in Canada. This is the fourth-largest population of Koreans outside of Korea (after Koreans in Japan and ahead of Koreans in Russia). ^[1] Also, the government of South Korean guessed that there are more than 100,000 Koreans living in Canada illegally. ^{[15] [16]}

History

The first Koreans who came to Canada were Christians. They were sent by Canadian missionaries to study Christianity in Canada. Not many stayed in Canada though; and in 1965, the total Korean population of Canada was only about 70 people. ^[17] However, after 1966's change of Canadian immigration laws, South Korean immigration to Canada grew. ^[17] Between 1970 and 1980, 18,148 Koreans immigrated to Canada, and another 17,583 came in the 1990s. ^[18] In the late 1990s, South Korea became the fifth-largest source of immigrants to Canada. ^[19] Toronto has the most Koreans in Canada, but Vancouver has the highest growth rate of Koreans. They have increased 69% since 1996. Montreal has the third-most Korean immigrants at this time. ^[20] In 2001, More Koreans went to Canada than to the United States. ^[21] The number of temporary residents also grew after the Canadian government made visas not necessary; South Korea sent the most international students to Canada in the late 1990s. ^[22] Many of the Koreans who came to Canada, came from the Korean population in China.

In the 1990s, many Koreans came to Canada because unemployment was high and income growth was low. It was the opposite in the United States at this time. ^[23] They also came because the Canadian dollar was very weak, so they could get a lot of Canadian money from their Korean money. In the USA, they could get less American dollars. So they had more money if they came to Canada ^[24] Lastly, in Korea at the time there were lots of anti-American feelings, and also many local native teachers came from Canada, so Koreans knew Canadians very well. . ^[25]

Koreans Today

Many Koreans in Canada are well educated, and many new immigrants and their children are skilled workers such as—doctors, professors, engineers, computer technicians—or businessmen.

Korean Canadians are usually one of three types: first generation immigrants, the “1. 5” generation who began their schooling in Korea but moved to Canada in their childhood or teen years, and the second generation born in Canada. Each group is very unique, but Korean Canadians are very loyal to their Korean culture. They do this by local culture activities, university and alumni groups, seniors’ groups, language schools and business contacts. Vancouver and Toronto have Korean-language newspapers, and Korean television and radio programs. Korean dance, music art, as well as martial arts and Korean cuisine, are very popular in Canada.

Today, many Korean Canadians are Christians, and often attend Korean churches. A small number are Buddhist or are not religious.

Demographics

Statistics were researched in 2007 by the South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The statistics showed that among Koreans living in Canada, 86,084 are Canadian citizens, 72,077 are permanent residents, 20,738 people have student visas, and 19,271 other people are temporary residents.
