The Story of Indian Immigration to Canada

Another very interesting article on Indian immigration to Canada. This one is by CIC news, written April of this year.

http://www.cicnews.com/2014/04/story-indian-immigration-canada-043365.html


The article has information on the first Indians who came to Canada in 1904 and settled mostly in Vancouver. Today, Toronto has the largest number of Indians, many of them also coming in from other countries like the Middle East and Africa and not necessarily from India.

Here is a table from Wiki.
