Another CBC Documentary


CBC NEWSWORLD aired Halya Kuchmij's documentary The Chan Legacy for the Generations Series during the month of July 2007.
The Chan Legacy documents the story of Dennis Wong's grandfather, Reverand Chan Yu Tan, and his descendents. The film portrays the shared history of many early Chinese-Canadian Pioneers. The story begins in 1896 and continues to present day. Included in the documentary is a segment on Dennis Wong and Chow: From China to Canada: Memories of Food and Family.

Families re-trace their roots through the Generations Series, a six-part series airing in July on CBC NEWSWORLD.
Generations: The Chan Legacy, produced by Halya Kuchmij, narrated by Michele Cheung.
