I have a hard time believing that Vancouver isn't already.

47.1% White, 46.8% Asian, according to 2006 Census.
A difference of 970 persons, then.

Yikes. And I thought Sydney was loaded with Asians.

Careful, they'll discover our true nature.

------------

I wonder if that Uni is big enough to bridge the 970 gap?

Uni is 50% Asian, 44% White. A gap of 635, which make a difference of 335.
Still, with immigration since 2006, it's surely plurality Asian now.

Because those two cities are the traditional economic and cultural hubs of the country. Also, neither are in Queensland.

And what is it about Queensland that should deter Asians?

I'll probably get an answer to this question when I no longer want one.  Tongue

It's known for borderline-racist politicians which are quite popular there.
Pauline Hanson and all the kit.
