Depends how traditional the couple is. My parents had absolutely no preference, while some (such as my grandparents) would take that concept and run.
It seems to be a dying brand though as the culture becomes less ingrained into the children. Concepts of "face" and politically created social status play less of a role in Canada than they do in traditional Chinese areas.
Again though, it's a family variant thing. Most I've met don't care too much.
