I'm still trying to get my head around the conflation of "visible minority" and "immigrant." Part of me says, isn't this just a statement of fact? Trends indicate an increase in immigration correlates with an increase in the population of visible minorities. I do get that the "where are you from?" can become a pet peeve. When I lived in Portugal I was often asked "Are you English?" If I said, "yes," next question was "what part of England are you from?" If I said "no," next question was "what language do you speak?"
