Chan is currently working on a new book about the lives of Chinese Canadians in Victoria and Vancouver from 1931 to 1932. This is based on his parent's letters and primary archival sources. In this manuscript, he recounts the notion of arranged marriages, the economics of managing a cafe catering to a predominantly European clientele, fashion, greeting cards communication and a swing band among Chinese Canadians, interracial relations and the murder of Mary Shaw, and the social impact of the Depression among the Chinese in Victoria and Vancouver, among other topics.

He continues to serve as a Consulting Editor on the Editorial Board of Asian Affairs: An American Journal (Washington, D.C.).
