According to my encyclopaedia of world Geography Canada is British 40%, French 29% and other European 22%. All other races combined are less that ten percent. To say that Canadians are more tolerant is a joke. If you are not Anglo American you are considered a minority. If we followed that system in the US you could say the US is like 70% minorities.
1) The Caucasians in Canada can't even get along. The are openly hostile to eachother and the country is very close to splitting apart.
2) In Vancouver the hostility towards Asians is intense. I have spent a great deal of time in Vancouver and have seen it first hand. A lawyer in my old firm, who was Asian, left British Columbia just for that reason.
3) The true test of a country is when an ethnic group reaches five percent of the total population. In France, the North Africans gave rise to Le Pen. In Germany the turks gave rise to the SDP. In Holland and Belgium overtly racists parties are very strong. There is quite a strong party in Western Canada, whose name escapes me, is also overtly racist - expecially against Asians.
4) In the US is 13% African American, 12% Hispanic, 4% Asian and 69% percent Caucasians. Before any European nation, or Canada got close to these numbers you can bet your bottom dollar a national racist party would come to power.
