List of Canadians by ethnicity

This is a list of Canadian residents (citizens, landed immigrants, and non-citizen temporary residents) by the ethnic origin(s) they chose to list on their 2001 census form. The relevant census question asked for the ethnicity or nationality of the respondent's ancestors and not the respondent's themselves. So, the labels do not necessarily describe the respondent themself (as they may identify themselves differently than their ancestor). Also, many respondents acknowledged multiple ancestries(origins). These people were counted one extra time for each origin listed (but are counted only once within a single origin's count). As well, some respondents interpreted the question differently, so two people with similar ethnic origin, may answer differently. This is especially true, when using "Canadian" as an ethnic origin.
