ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Aboriginal Person
Other terms that are widely used to describe aboriginal people include: North American Indian, Native People or
Amerindian.
Aboriginal persons include people living on and off reserves plus Status, Non-Status, and Treaty Indians.
Aboriginals from Latin America, and East Indians should mark themselves as a racial minority.
Racial Minority Status
Racial minority status is based on race or colour, not nationality. Therefore, there are many persons who were born
in Canada or who are Canadian citizens who would consider themselves to be a visible minority because of their
race or colour.
The listing of racial minorities is for guidance only. While some categories refer to both nationality and racial origin, it
is racial origin, not nationality that should guide you. For example, if you are of Chinese origin but were born in
South America, you would select “Chinese””.
Racial Minority Groups
Black
: includes Canadian, African, American, West Indian and
South American Black.
Oceanic
: includes Polynesian, Micronesian, Melanesian and Fijian.
Other South East Asian
: includes Burmese, Cambodian, Laotian, Thai and

select one of the other racial minority groups.
Visible Minority West Asian and North African
: includes visible minorities who are Lebanese, Egyptian,
Palestinian, Syrian, Iranian, Turk, Armenian, North African
and Mauritian.
