2036 or so will be the inflection point towards a White minority in Canada. About 1 in 5 Canadians are seniors, so if we assume that this group is predominately white and that most of them will be dead in ~15 years, along with 1 in 5 Canadians being foreign born (from 2011).

In 2011, Canada had a foreign-born population of about 6,775,800 people. They represented 20.6% of the total population, the highest proportion among the G8 countries.

Startling. So it's 10 years later and immigration has really only increased, so this could be extrapolated to a 7% increase in the foreign born population.

Between 2006 and 2011, around 1,162,900 foreign-born people immigrated to Canada. These recent immigrants made up 17.2% of the foreign-born population and 3.5% of the total population in Canada.

I think we're probably ahead of schedule.

The results of the projections show that according to all the projection scenarios selected, the proportion of the Canadian population consisting of foreign-born persons would continue to rise, reaching between 25% and 28% in 2031. In other words, within some twenty years, at least one person in four living in Canada could be foreign-born.
