Somalis only 65k? I thought y’all were at least 200k

Just for numbers sake Nigerian: Nigerian+Yoruba+Igbo= 131k
habesha: Ethiopia+Eritrea+Tigrinya = 91k
There was around 8k oromos as well so you can round up the Ethiopian/habesha group to 100k

These two groups are now the largest black African communities in Canada

Can't add them up like that. You can check off multiple ethnicities or cultural origins.

"The sum of the ethnic or cultural origins in this table is greater than the total population estimate because a person may report more than one ethnic or cultural origin in the census"

We’re not anywhere near 200k but where not as small as 65k either probably around 80-85k there was some undercounting with the census

There is not many Africans in Canada as Carribeans dominate over there. I can't Nigerian eithers and got a weird smell too.

The govt found out Somalia isn’t that dangerous so they ain’t bringing us in anymore. Terrorism isn’t enough these days u gotta give em a juicy story like ur gay or christian fleeing persecution. Double points if u say ur both.
