| Visible Minority to Increase http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/s...1d7329&k=34160 Quote:
VANCOUVER - The number of members of visible minorities in B.C. surpassed the one-million mark in 2006 and the majority of them live in Metro Vancouver, according to the latest census data.
About 86.8 per cent of visible minority members in the province lived in Metro, which is fast closing in on Toronto as the country’s most diverse region.
Visible minority groups accounted for 41.7 per cent of Metro Vancouver’s population, slightly behind Toronto’s 42.9 per cent and up from 36.9 per cent in Greater Vancouver in 2001.
Chinese were the largest visible minority in B.C., accounting for 40.4 per cent of the visible minority population and 10 per cent of B.C.’s total population in 2006.
Almost three-quarters of them were born outside Canada. Of those, one in five arrived in Canada from 2001 to 2006 while 45.8 per cent came in the 1990s.
About 43.6 per cent of Richmond’s population was of Chinese origin, the highest proportion of Chinese in a Canadian municipality. By comparison, 27.5 per cent of Surrey’s population was of South Asian origin.
Visible minorities accounted for only about 16.2 per cent of Canada’s total population, up from 13.4 per cent in 2001 and 11.2 per cent in 1996.
Immigrants arriving in Canada are more likely to move to the suburbs than to the downtown areas of large cities that previous generations historically preferred, according to a University of Toronto study released Monday.

It's always great to have diversity, but I have mixed feelings about this. Not quite sure why I feel a little uncomfortable by the news.

when do I as a single white male start to see the benefits of being a visible minority? 10 years from now, I guarantee white people make up less than 50% of Greater Vancouver.

calling a honger a mainlander is kind of like calling a canadian an american. i would guess most canadians would be offended by the profiling but some wont care. same deal.

As long as they are not fanatics/religious crazies or extreme villagers (i.e would take a shit in the middle of a street), sounds good...
