Canadian born Chinese Olympic Team gollie not allowed to speak English

All these Canadians who use hockey to immigrate to better countries need to adapt to their new culture.

she’s representing the Chinese people. why would she speak to them in a language they don’t understand.

There are a lot of non-Mandarin speakers on the Men's team that were born and grew up in other countries. A number of them with no connection to China until they began playing hockey there.

The ocean of poorly educated Americans who only speak 1 language is exposed during world sporting events . Americans should learn how to say “ thank you “ in mandarin when they lace up their China-Nike Pegasus .

She was at a press conference. She was asked a question in English. Her government overseer said no questions in English.

Communism is a disease.

"Gollie?" It's the OP who shouldn't be allowed to speak English.

She's representing herself. Let's not kid ourselves.

The poorly educated media person should learn more than 1 language . They are in the communication business

Her choice to play for China. What do ya expect?

The Canadian should be speaking French.

There's a 99% chance "poorly educated media person" is better educated than a school teacher.    

God forbid the OP learn a non-white language of the host country spoken by billions of Asians

The point was she wasn’t allowed to because of her government

So what? Quebec requires you to speak in French. English is forbidden in Quebec in a lot of places and especially anything to do with the government. Yet you don't complain about Quebec because you and the OP are white and are just casually racist against billions of Mandarin speaking Asians.

People need to realize that authoritarianism is ingrained in China's Confucian culture, and they intend to export it to the rest of the world. You continue to do business with China at your own peril.

Oh, right, this coming from Americans. LOL. Have your authorities under Biden given you freedom of association back yet unless you get stabbed 4 times with a covid vaccine that is making billions in profits?

Sure beats being welded into your apartment building.

You just caricatured yourself.

Or is it because the most amount of Chinese you know is from ordering chicken fried rice?
