Allen, Sorry but statistically speaking it doesn't confirm it. All the same ethnic groups are represented in significant numbers. They are just as "diverse". You are say greater population of certain groups means greater diversity, that is simply an untrue statement. Dan D.

Allen, I understand the 16.2% to represent visible minorities. In fact the 2006 census claims there are more than 200 different ethnic groups in Canada. "By 2006, 11 ethnic origins had passed the 1-million population mark. The largest group enumerated by the census consisted of just over 10 million people who reported Canadian as their ethnic ancestry, either alone (5.7 million) or with other origins (4.3 million)." This suggests the ethnic group is far higher in total percentage. statcan.ca
