The integration of wealthy Hong Kong immigrants into Vancouver sparked significant public debates surrounding urban planning, multiculturalism, and socioeconomic inequality. Their financial influence reshaped the city, highlighting the interplay between global real estate interests and local dynamics. Katharyne Mitchell explores how liberalism manifests differently across geographical contexts, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the historical and spatial dimensions of liberal thought as societies transition to neoliberalism. This analysis reveals the complexities of urban transformation in a globalized world.
