📕About JOHNNY DELIVERS by Wayne Ng
In 1977 Toronto, eighteen-year-old Johnny Wong tries to save his chaotic family and their Chinese restaurant from debt, by invoking the spirit of Bruce Lee and selling weed with deliveries. All this while juggling a first love, high school, and uncovering sordid family secrets.
🏮About The Yet Keen Seniors' Day Centre
Yet Keen is a program of the Somerset West Community Health Centre, dedicated to reducing isolation and enhancing the wellbeing of Chinese-speaking seniors in Ottawa. Established by the community for the community nearly 40 years ago, it remains the only language- and culturally-specific drop-in centre in Ottawa where Chinese seniors can socialize in their mother tongue—a crucial aspect of supporting both their physical and mental health.
