there's a ton more History to Black people in North America (and South American too :troll:) than Slave trades and civil rights.

Canada is part of the Commonwealth (British owned country in the past)

A lot of West Indians migrated there, just as they went to London, back in the day. We can travel up to a certain age to those countries real easy. After a certain age, they tighten up the restricts.

Not sure how them Africans moving thru

lol @ imagine...the freedom trail to Canada is a large part of the narrative youre force fed...

Majority of blacks here are immigrants from Africa/West Indies or are 1st/2nd generation from african/west indian immigrants...

Most Black people in Canada come from the Caribbean and more recently parts of Africa. The Black people that came from the US mostly live in the East Coast (nova scotia).
