Sounds like a bit of a double-standard to me. Chinese only ads in Vancouver are not OK but English only ads in Shanghai are OK?
English is part of the Chinese school curriculum but only a fraction of the population can actually speak and (one assumes) read English.
To lots of people in Shanghai those words in English look as unintelligible to them as Chinese characters look to you. (Assuming you can't read Chinese characters.)
