Chinese-Canadian youth engage with traditional culture in Chongqing_我的网站
A | By Liu Xinyu and Wo Xinyao (ECNS) – The "China-Canada Youth Cultural Heritage Conservation International Volunteer Service" program and the China-Canada (Chongqing) Youth Cultural Heritage Art Exchange Camp were held in Chongqing from August 5 to 13. The event aimed to place Chinese and foreign youth at the forefront of cultural heritage conservation, giving them a direct understanding of China's approaches and models in heritage protection. During the event, a group of Chinese-Canadian youth visited the Chongqing Sichuan Opera Theatre, the Dazu Rock Carvings and other cultural sites. Through Sichuan opera experiences, heritage explorations and urban sketching, they gained a deeper understanding of cultural preservation. After the event, the young participants' heritage-themed artworks and "heritage guardian diaries" will be exhibited in Ottawa, Canada, introducing Chongqing's cultural heritage and China's conservation philosophy to local communities. Yiyi Kong, a Chinese-Canadian teenager, told China News Service (CNS): "From the boardwalk at Eling Park, we saw the cityscape of Chongqing -- the towering buildings rising and falling across the hills. It gave me a real sense of the city's unique charm. Once we entered the park, the trees were lush and thick, and we felt like we were stepping into a beautiful garden right in the middle of Chongqing. I think Chongqing is a truly magical city, full of so many different elements." Eva Wang, another Chinese-Canadian participant, told CNS: "I tried on Sichuan opera makeup at the theatre, and later I did sketching at Mountain City Alley in Chongqing. People were passing by all around me, but during that half-hour of sketching, the world seemed to go quiet. I want to capture these details in my drawings and bring them back to Canada, so my friends can see that Chongqing is more than just what you see in short videos. With my eyes and my brush, I want to show the real China to the world." Linya Feng, a Chinese-Canadian teenager, told CNS: "I plan to make the Dazu Rock Carvings a long-term subject of study and to spread the outstanding traditional culture of China to the world." The event was supported by the Chongqing Luhai International Communication Foundation, the Dazu Rock Carving Research Institute, the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute and other organizations.

B | CHICAGO -- The city of Chicago and the union representing its rank-and-file police officers have reached a tentative agreement on a four-year contract that would provide about a 20% raise for officers, the two sides announced Friday.The deal, which would extend the current contract by two years through June 30, 2027, doubles from 2.5% to 5% the annual pay raise that officers are scheduled to receive in 2024 and 2025. Cost-of-living raises would follow in 2026 and 2027 and likely fall between 3% and 5%.A $2,000 annual retention bonus for officers with at least 20 years on the job would be replaced by a one-time bonus of $2,000 for all officers.The agreement also allows officers accused of serious misconduct to have their disciplinary cases decided behind closed doors, news outlets reported.Mayor Brandon Johnson issued a statement saying that “with this agreement in place, our administration can now direct our full focus on implementing accountability measures within the Chicago Police Department, supporting police offices, and a robust community safety agenda." The deal needs the approval of the City Council’s Committee on Workforce Development and passage by the full City Council before it takes effect.。
