The point is ethnic minorities have just as much in common with similar minorites in the states than they do with white folk in say saskatoon.

This is bordering on nonsense.
The mid west-prairies are heavily german-norwegian influenced.
The south and old school canada has a heavy scots-english influence.
With our cities having a strong polish-italian-russian influence.
If you were to use demographics you wouldn't have a leg to stand on.
