Editing Racial segregation (section)

=== Canada ===

Until 1965, racial segregation in schools, stores and most aspects of public life existed legally in [[Ontario]], [[Quebec]] and [[Nova Scotia]], and informally in other provinces such as [[British Columbia]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Henry |first=Natasha |date=8 September 2021 |title=Racial Segregation of Black People in Canada |url=https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/racial-segregation-of-black-people-in-canada |website=The Canadian Encyclopedia |access-date=4 August 2020 |archive-date=24 March 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220324054026/https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/racial-segregation-of-black-people-in-canada |url-status=live }}</ref>

Since the 1970s, there has been a concern expressed by some academics that major Canadian cities are becoming more segregated on income and ethnic lines. Reports have indicated that the inner suburbs of post-merger [[Toronto]]<ref name=huffingtonpost1 /> and the southern [[bedroom communities]] of [[Greater Vancouver]]<ref name="huffingtonpost1">{{Cite news |last=Mendelson |first=Rachel |date=12 March 2012 |title=Vancouver Income Inequality Study Shows City Segregating Along Racial, Income Lines |work=Huffington Post |url=http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2012/03/12/vancouver-income-inequality-study_n_1334796.html |access-date=22 February 2015 |archive-date=23 February 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150223025103/http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2012/03/12/vancouver-income-inequality-study_n_1334796.html |url-status=live }}</ref> have become steadily more immigrant and [[visible minority]] dominated communities and have lagged behind other neighbourhoods in average income. A [[CBC News|CBC]] panel in Vancouver in 2012 discussed the growing public fear that the proliferation of [[ethnic enclaves]] in Greater Vancouver (such as [[Chinese Canadians in Greater Vancouver|Han Chinese]] in [[Richmond, British Columbia|Richmond B.C.]] and [[Punjabis in Vancouver|Punjabis]] in [[Surrey, British Columbia|Surrey, B.C.]]) amounted to a type of [[self-segregation]]. In response to these fears, many minority activists have pointed out that most Canadian neighbourhoods remain predominately White, and yet white people are never accused of "self-segregation".

The [[Mohawks of Kahnawá:ke|Mohawk tribe]] of [[Kahnawake]] has been criticized for evicting non-Mohawks from the Mohawk reserve.<ref>{{Cite web |date=30 March 2010 |title=Natives only, please: A look into the eviction of non-natives from the Kahnawake reserve |url=https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/story.html?id=2529314#ixzz0gEyxbZlC |access-date=15 February 2011 |website=National Post |location=Canada}}{{dead link|date=March 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> Mohawks who marry outside of their tribal nation lose their right to live in their homelands.<ref name="nationalpost.com">{{Cite web |date=30 March 2010 |title=Mohawk role model faces eviction over non-native fiancé |url=https://nationalpost.com/news/a9/3288607/story.html |access-date=15 February 2011 |website=National Post |location=Canada}}{{dead link|date=December 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref name="thestar.com">{{Cite news |last=Brennan |first=Richard |date=21 February 2010 |title=Evicting 26 non-natives splits reserve |work=The Star |location=Toronto |url=https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/768952--evicting-26-non-natives-splits-reserve |access-date=10 September 2017 |archive-date=20 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121020084224/http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/768952--evicting-26-non-natives-splits-reserve |url-status=live }}</ref> The Mohawk government claims that its policy of nationally exclusive membership is for the preservation of its identity,<ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite web |date=30 March 2010 |title=Not native?

A long-standing practice of national segregation has also been imposed upon the commercial salmon fishery in [[British Columbia]] since 1992 when separate commercial fisheries were created for select aboriginal groups on three B.C. river systems. Canadians of other nations who fish in the separate fisheries have been arrested, jailed and prosecuted. Although the fishermen who were prosecuted were successful at trial in [[R v Kapp]],<ref>{{Cite web |title=R. v.
