PROPORTIONS CANADIAN, UNITED STATES AND ELSEWHERE BORN 53
Attention has been called to the very high percentage of French born in Canada. Less
than 3 p.c. of those of French origin were born outside Canada. Of those, two-thirds came
from United States and one-third from Europe.
The Asiatics, as will be seen in Table 20, show very small percentages Canadian born
with the exception of the Syrians, of whom about 50 p.c. were native Canadians.
The Europeans are grouped geographically and linguistically in Tables 18 and 19. Considerable
variation is shown in the geographical groups. Among the Northern Europeans,
the Dutch show the largest percentage Canadian born and the smallest foreign born. The
Germans are the second, then the Swiss and Icelanders in the order named. The Belgians
have the lowest percentage born in Canada and the highest propomtion foreign born
outside of the United States. Even greater variation characterizes the South, Eastern
and Central Europeans. In this group the Portuguese have the smallest proportion foreign
born. Their numbers, however, are very small and consequently not important from the
standpoint of the composition of the Canadian population. The Bulgarians, even fewer in
numbers, are at the foot of the list in respect to percentage of Canadian birth. The others
range around 45 p.c. Canadian born as a median vale.
