This paper discusses how, during much of the 20th century, the Canadian leadership and general population placed immigrant groups into a hierarchy of social acceptability. This hierarchy was based on commonly accepted ethnic stereotypes connected to physical features and the capacity to conform to the norms of British culture. Overall, Canadian elites welcomed immigration for the sake of economic objectives, but their immigration policies were modified by those who argued that immigrants must be assimilable into Canadian society. 8 pgs.
