Shannxi Association of Canada 2025/12/3 The sky is azure, like a love letter from home. We embark on our Montreal journey, carried by the Qin wind. The maple leaves at Emerald Lake Villa are ablaze with color, the shimmering lake stirs up the homesickness of those far from home. A group of people holding a banner.

Shannxi Association of Canada 2026/12/6 The Xinghua Village I'm referring to isn't the place of romantic wine and poetry, the place the shepherd boy points to in the poem. I can't imagine the Xinghua Village the poet described, but for many years, the Xinghua Village in my heart has been a beautiful, romantic, yet profoundly realistic scroll. Years have passed, and I'm now over fifty, especially in the "multi-village" community of overseas Chinese. Though surrounded by mounta

Shannxi Association of Canada 2025/12/7   I was born in Northern Shaanxi—a place kissed by the sun and nourished by the loess soil. It is the hometown to which my grandparents and parents dedicated their lives, and the source and home of my soul.     My childhood memories are filled with playing and frolicking with my friends in the flat courtyard in front of our cave dwellings. The winds of the four seasons swept across the Loess Plateau, bending the sorghum, filling the air

Shannxi Association of Canada 2025/12/8 Life is full of firsts. My first time getting drunk was in the winter of the year I graduated high school and went to work in the countryside in northern Shaanxi. It wasn't that I was a heavy drinker; I simply had no idea that alcohol could make someone drunk.     I remember it was a snowy day in December, close to the Lunar New Year. A young man from the village, a friend of mine who had returned home, invited me to his house. His moth

Not from the Qin Chuan region Yet in Canada, the song of the Loess Plateau is heard It's not the sound of the wind It's the sound of drums awakened from the waist Echoes reverberating through the sky for millennia The drumsticks are like forked lightning A cleaving axe's light that split the heavens and earth The drumhead is like slumbering thunder Once awakened It ignites a faith from the depths of Shaanxi First encounter with the Ansai waist drum It was by chance, yet a des

Shaanxi Association of Canada 2026/12/13   My daughter, Ding Hua, tragically passed away in Canada due to a ruptured hemangioma, leaving behind a five-year-old daughter. When we were on the verge of collapse, the Shaanxi Association of Canada provided us with assistance, helping us through this difficult time.

Canadian Shaanxi Association December 24, 2025   My ancestral home isn't in Shaanxi, but I grew up in the Muslim Quarter of Xi'an, spending my childhood wandering the streets and alleys of the city.

Ding Shengmao Shaanxi Association of Canada January 10, 2026, 7:06 PM   Since my daughter Ding Hua's unexpected passing in January 2015, my granddaughter Wang Jiarui, who was once lively and cheerful, has become quiet and withdrawn, sometimes lost in thought. As her grandfather, I'm very worried about her. I try my best to spend time with her, playing with her on the sled, flying kites, and even letting her ride me like a horse at home. I do everything I can to make her happy

Mao Caiqin Shaanxi Association of Canada January 13, 2026   I came to Canada after retiring and have lived in Newmarket, north of Toronto, for over ten years. Initially, due to the language barrier and unfamiliar environment, I, accustomed to the hustle and bustle of mainland China, found it very difficult to adapt. I thought that to live here long-term, I needed to change myself, actively learn about Western culture, familiarize myself with Canada, and integrate into the loc

Misty Plateau, Persimmon Fragrance, and the Oil Mill's Passing Days   By Bai Fanghong Shaanxi Association of Canada   January 15, 2026       When morning mist creeps over the plateau ridge, it first clings to lashes. Dust particles wrapped in fog, fine as ground wheat bran, stick to eyes—a blink brings gritty discomfort. This is Qinland mist: not drifting, but heavy, pressing down on the plateau. It dampens coarse cotton shirts, clinging to backs like half a sack of freshly h

By Yang Guanghu Canadian Shaanxi Association January 16, 2026                  In my youth, I was neither wise nor had the time to ponder such matters. Place names were simply memorized, rarely questioned for their origins. In recent years, as I've grown older, thoughts of tracing my roots and exploring my heritage have gradually emerged. “Who are you? Where do you come from? Where are you going?” These are the three ultimate questions of philosophy. Reflections on the origin
