Why are indians doing so much better than other minorities?

**** you kenyan too?

Indo-Canadians are significantly more likely than the Canadian average to have a university degree, and most Indians in Canada are socio-economically middle class.^[2] 54% of South Asians in Canada have household incomes greater than $60,000, compared to the 46% Canadian average. Canadian adults of East Indian origin are much less likely than other adults to live alone. In 2001, just 4% of the East Indian community aged 15 and over lived alone, compared with 13% of all adult Canadians. Seniors of East Indian origin are especially unlikely to live alone. That year, only 8% of Canadians of East Indian origin aged 65 and over lived alone, compared with 29% of all seniors in Canada. In contrast, seniors of East Indian origin are more likely than other seniors to live with members of their extended family. In 2001, 24% of seniors of East Indian origin lived with relatives, such as the family of a son or daughter, while only 5% of all seniors in Canada lived with relatives

Straight from statistics Canada. Also bare in mind mass Indian immigration to Canada didn't start until the 80s. Majority of young Indian-Canadians are first generation

According to the 2005 census data for Canada, 44 percent of Pakistani-born immigrants in Canada were below the poverty line, being the second most poor group of immigrants in Canada, with many engineers, doctors and doctorates working as taxi drivers or security guards.Only 55 percent of Pakistani-born immigrants owned a home, and 44 percent lived in households with five or more people.On an average, the wages of Pakistani-born immigrants were 70 percent of that of Canadians.

Same story different country

When I said they're messed up I wasn't really talking about economics, more like things like huge levels of organised crime, gang violence/deaths, religious extremism/terrorism (like the Air India flight bombing), honour killings etc. These things seem to effect Indians in Canada much more than Indians in other Western countries.

Tbh Indian immigrants in Canada don't really do that great either



There seems to be an absolutely huge difference between Canadian Indians and Indian Americans, just like with Pakistani Canadians and Pakistani Anericans (also Chinese)

I do not speak about genetics. I speak about culture. The "Pakistanis" comiteed treason against their own ancestors and people for siding with the muslim invadors. They lost their claim on anything pre-muslim in "Pakistan".

The report is from a few years ago but it's only gotten worse since then.


Why are indians doing so well compared to these other groups and what can be done to get them off benefits and into work?

Don't you think it's interesting the people who are always the first to say how great indians or Asians are doing ....are RARELY indians or Asians themselves ?

Because I think about the Asian women working twelve hours a day in sweatshops to make clothes for people like you. And I wondered, in what sense were they doing so well ?

I thought about the Asian families whose members have to put in eighty hours a week just to keep their heads above water; and I wondered, in what sense were they doing so well?

I thought about the Indian, Pakistani or Bangladeshi taxi drivers up here in the N.West who endure crappy working conditions, customers who get angry about their accents, get their money robbed, often get called "Paki" and I wondered, in what sense were they doing so well ?

I think about Mosques who get bricks through their windows and Muslim women wearing a Burkha who get spat at in the street and I think - How are they doing so well ?

I think about the way every Asian in Rochdale is seen as a child sex offender, after that child sex ring scandal a few years back and I think how are they doing so well ?

Immigrants from India (even those that are Muslim) tend to be less obsessed about religion than their South Asian counterparts.

Their communal isolation can also explain why there are more Pakistani and Bangladeshi politicians in the UK, as the solidarity amongst these communities has lead to them presenting a more united political front, in contrast to the Indians (in western countries, not those in India who vote caste) where votes are cast based on socio-economic policies, and tend to be swing voters.

I don't need you telling me what I see everyday in my own country lol. There is some recent information from statistics Canada

LOL Indians particularly Sikhs are not extremists in Canada. Those attacks were a 1 time occurrence!

Like I mentioned rates of organized crime are only in BC, which have gone down significantly in the last 2 decades.

What honour killings? I can think of possibly 1-2 but there are far more in the Pakistani/Muslim communities.
