Canada was originally the hometown of Indians and Inuit. Since16th century, French and British colonists began to invade. In the early days, French immigrants were the main ones, who successively moved into 10000 people and established colonies along the St. Lawrence River, which was called "New France" in history. After the British invasion, it fought against France for a century and a half and gained Canada in 1763.

Since then, British immigrants have flooded in and soon surpassed French immigrants. At the same time, other immigrants from Europe moved in. Few black slaves were brought to Canada by colonists. At that time, there were 240 thousand Indians and Inuit living in Canada. Due to the massacre of the colonists, the population dropped sharply.

Thus, by the beginning of the19th century, Canada had formed a country dominated by European immigrants, with 360,000 white residents at that time. By the middle of19th century, it had soared to 2.45 million. After World War II, there was another wave of immigrants. 65438+ China people moved in in 1980s. In the past 370 years,1250,000 immigrants have entered the country and played an important role in the ethnic composition of Canada.
