Chong wrote an opinion editorial for The Globe and Mail newspaper in late 2004 entitled “Canadians without hyphens”, criticizing John Barber’s suggestion that there were not enough Chinese-Canadian MPs representing areas with large Chinese populations. Chong noted he was elected in a riding with a 97% caucasian population, while John McCallum was elected in Markham—Unionville, which is more than 60% Asian. Chong argued that these results reflected his idea of Canada, adding that he favoured the creation of a “common Canadian identity that will allow for greater understanding among ethnic groups”.
Chong is primarily known as a fiscal conservative and is considered a moderate in his party. He declared his personal support for the Kyoto Protocol during the 2004 federal election, despite his party’s opposition to the measure. He supported Elizabeth Witmer’s bid to lead the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario in 2001–02, and supported John Tory for the same position in 2004.
