The Tai Hon Kong Bo[2] (Chinese: 大漢公報; Jyutping: daai6 hon3 gung1 bou3; pinyin: Dàhàn gōngbào), also known as The Chinese Times,[3] or Da Han Gong Bao,[4] was a Chinese language daily newspaper in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It was established by the Chee Kung Tong[5] in 1906[6] and ceased publication on 3 October 1992.[7]

However, a research claims that the newspaper Wa-Ying Yat-Po (1906–1909) is not the predecessor of Tai Hon Kong Bo, and that the year of Tai Hon Kong Bo's creation is not 1906 but 1910.[8]

On 3 October 1992, Tai Hon Kong Bo announced the suspension of its publication.

Tai Hon Kong Bo was the longest-running Chinese diaspora newspaper in Canada,[9] and it acted as the commanding authority for Cantonese-speakers throughout North America.[10]
