34 DISTRIBUTION OF STOCKS BY LENGTH OF RESIDENCE 
The total for the North Western European group was 21.20 p.c., while that for the 
South, Eastern and Central Europeans was 14.35 p.c. ‘Thus, from the standpoint of the per- 
centage of the foreign born in Canada who had arrived prior to 1901, confirmation is 
given to the previous conclusion that the North Western Europeans as a group were older 
immigrants than those from the South, Eastern and Central parts of Europe. While such 
a generalization may be true as applying to the broad sections of Europe, among the 
south, eastern and central peoples, there were several countries with larger percentages. Of 
the foreign born Galicians of Canada, 16 p.c. arrived before 1901, of the Austrians and 
Russians over 17 p.c. and of the Czechoslovakians, 12 pc. The percentage of the Poles 
arriving before 1901 was considerably lower than that of the other important Slavie 
peoples. 
Totals for the linguistic groups show that a larger percentage of the Buropean born 
Germanic peoples had arrived in Canada prior to 1901 than obtained for the Scandinavian 
group. The percentages for both of these groups, however, were higher than those for 
either the Slavs or the Latins and Greeks. From the proportions of the foreign born 
who had arrived prior to 1901, one is justified in concluding that of the immigrants of this 
generation the Germanic peoples were earlier arrivals than the Scandinavians, and the Slavs 
than the Latin and Greeks. A detailed examination of these two tables will reveal many 
other interesting facts.
