    Extractions: [pg. 16] Canada's official emphasis on multiculturalism has tended to divert attention from the normal problems of acculturation and assimilation that most immigrants must resolve in order to establish themselves successfully in this country. Politically and demographically, Canada has been bilingual and bicultural. Whatever their ethnic or cultural origins, immigrants must come to terms with either one or the other of the two major linguistic and cultural groups that dominate Canadian society. While it is true that Canada has offered refuge to a number of religious minority groups that have been victims of persecution in the past and has allowed them to continue their unique cultural and religious life styles, this has not been the general expectation for most immigrants coming to Canada. Immigrants most similar to either of the two charter groups have always been encouraged to believe that they would experience the least difficulty in achieving acceptable levels of social and economic integration (Manpower and Immigration 1974b). Those who were from ethnic or cultural origins other than northern and western Europe were expected to make whatever adjustments might be required to adapt successfully to the new social and economic conditions. Studies of immigrants and their descendants have produced a considerable body of evidence showing the nature and extent of the considerable adaptations immigrants have in fact made (Richmond and Kalbach 1980). It is also clear that there are significant variations between ethnic origin groups in their individual members' capacity to become acculturated and economically integrated into Canadian society (Kalbach and Richard 1985a, 1985b).

GCR Archives Kevin McGrath, Editor mcgrath@primaryresearch.org Intra- and Inter- Marriage Between Ethnic Groups in Beverly in 1895, 1900, and 1905 By Sarah Coffey Intermarriage between ethnic groups around the turn of the century depended on many factors. Ethnic groups themselves can be defined as having these six characteristics: common language, common heredity, common religion, common geographic locale, common behavioral norms and a common set of surnames. These characteristics help a certain ethnic group maintain its distinctiveness. It is this certain distinctiveness that ethnic groups hope to maintain, especially by discouraging marriage to outsiders. Thus, intermarriage between ethnic groups is more likely to occur if the availability of partners inside the ethnic group is low.

The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, including history of angina, previous myocardial infarction, previous cardiac surgery and previous stroke, was similar in subjects with MVP (7.7%) and in those without MVP (6.7%) (P=0.84). The authors concluded that MVP has a much lower prevalence than previously estimated and the prevalence of MVP is similar among different ethnic groups. From a population perspective, the prevalence of serious cardiovascular complications associated with MVP is low.

    Extractions: - John A. Macdonald, 1885. In its hundred plus year history Canada and the province of British Columbia have had a shameful history of dealing with their non-white immigrants. These immigrants were often blamed for economic, social and political problems which arose. The British Columbia Government often took the leading role in such matters, especially in the case of the Canada's Chinese immigrants, the majority of which settled in British Columbia. The "Chinese Problem" would in fact consume much of the B.C. government's time and energy throughout the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Federal Government Policy Perhaps the most important and consistent method used by the federal government to discourage Oriental immigration was the Head Tax. The Head Tax began in 1885 and was at first set at $50. This sum would be required of a Chinese immigrant prior to his admission into Canada (if he was not denied entry for a number of other reasons -for example, suspicion of having a contagious disease). Not all Chinese people were taxed. Those who were educated (such as doctors, scientists, students, clergy) and those who were only visiting Canada were not forced to pay.

    Extractions: CANADIAN CARDIOVASCULAR SOCIETY 1998 CONSENSUS CONFERENCE ON THE PREVENTION OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES: THE ROLE OF THECARDIOVASCULAR SPECIALIST Cardiovascular diseases in ethnic groups Sonia Anand MD, Salim Yusuf MD Throughout the world and within Canada, cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality varies substantially by geographic region, sex and ethnic origin (1). An ethnic group refers to a population that shares common cultural characteristics, such as language, religion and diet. Therefore, the concept of ethnicity relies more on a shared cultural definition of identity than solely on biological similarity. ETHNIC GROUPS IN CANADA Ethnicity research is particularly relevant in a country such as Canada, given that non-Canadian-born individuals constitute 17.4% of the Canadian population (2). The sources of immigration to Canada have changed markedly during the past century, and in 1996 people of European origin accounted for 47% of the total immigrant population. Traditionally, European-born immigrants came from the United Kingdom, Germany or Italy, whereas now the majority come from Eastern European countries. The fastest growing group of new immigrants in Canada is from Asia (31% in 1996), and nearly a quarter of all recent immigrants are from China and India. The third-largest immigrant group in Canada is from Central and South America. MORTALITY PATTERNS IN SELECTED ETHNIC POPULATIONS IN CANADA

The report shows that Canadians have access to a variety of ethnic services that are widely carried across the country in both analogue and digital form. In creating this snapshot of the industry during 2001, the Commission studied a sample of 40 different-sized markets across the country. Based on 1996 data from Statistics Canada, sample markets were generally chosen for the study if they contained at least one ethnic group which represented 5 per cent or more of the community. An ethnic group is defined as any culturally or racially distinct group other than those groups comprised of respondents who identified themselves with Statistics Canada in 1996 to be of French, British, Canadian, or Aboriginal Canadian origin. Population determined each market size. Markets that had a population of 300,000 or more were considered large, those with a population ranging between 299,999 and 100,000 were considered medium and those with a population of less than 100,000 were considered small.
