It would be interesting to cross-reference these with other stats. For instance, if a visible minority immigrates to Toronto prior to 2011 for secondary school, then comes here for school and then stays, do they still count as an immigrant when the census comes around?
Similarly, I'd be interested to know of that 14,045 that arrived from 2011 to 2016, what fields did they end up in? I suspect a broad mix. On the other hand if there is a shortage of jobs that either don't require Canadian credentials or for which credentials are relatively quick to get (think taxi driver, or personal support worker), then that could limit a larger wave of immigrants being attracted to the Region.
