From today's Inside Higher Ed:

"Canadian immigration policy favors those with a higher education, and 
the result is that white Canadians now are behind most other groups in 
the country when it comes to educational attainment, according to new 
research reported by the CanWest News Service.

According to new data, only 25.9 percent of white Canadians have a 
university degree. The figures for some other other groups: black 
Canadians (30.1 percent), South Asians (47.4 percent), Japanese 
Canadians (48.5 percent), Arab Canadians (51.6 percent), Chinese 
Canadians (58.4 percent), Filipino Canadians (58.6 percent), and in the 
top spot Korean Canadians (74.7 percent)."
