Ugandans in Canada

It is good that Mr. Mulira tells the story of the unknown black Ugandan Diaspora. I hope this book. encourages more books written by others who fi nd themselves living away from their beautiful homeland.. . . . . - M/s Yasmin Alibhai -Brown writer for the Guadian London U.K.. . . . . Th is is a very interesting and informative book. I enjoyed reading it and learned not only the life stories. and contributions of Ugandan immigrants in Canada but also the history of Canadian immigration.. . . . Ugandan immigrants in Canada have become more visible in recent years. Yet it is likely that only a small. percentage of Canadian citizens are well informed of the history and interesting traditions of these people. from East Africa. Th e actual number of Ugandan immigrants currently living in Canada is uncertain but. could range from 10000 to 20000 people. Most of the Ugandan immigrants in Canada live in major. metropolitan areas like greater Toronto Montreal Vancouver Edmonton Calgary and Winnipeg. In the. U.S. where the number is larger they are also mostly concentrated in New York City Boston Los Angeles. Chicago and other large industrial cities.
