Visible Minority: Master S Thesis

Visible Minorities Dept: John Oh moved to the area as a little kid. After growing up a visible minority in a part of the province that is about 94 per cent white, he decided to write his master s thesis on the subject, according to CTV. There's definitely a little bit of a different culture in the valley as opposed to a bigger city like Calgary or Vancouver, Oh said and in B.C. s Okanagan region, where there are significantly fewer visible minorities compared to Metro Vancouver, ethnic discrimination can be shockingly overt. In his survey, half of the minorities agreed with the statement, I do not feel welcome in my community. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
