| Abstract: | While immigrants from non-traditional source countries are encouraged through a non-discriminatory admission policy to come to Canada, Blacks and other immigrants of colour, once in Canada, face systemic and institutional discrimination and barriers (through non-recognition of their foreign qualification and experience) and racial and ethnic prejudice (through stereotypic portrayal and representation). |
