Yes but their called NAACs (North American African Canadians) which is what I assume you meant.

If you meant Canadian Appalachian aboriginals then sorry no, they're like right behind Asians in numbers. At my school you couldn't throw a rock without hitting one.

Edit:not that we would throw rocks at them, that would be racist it's just whenever we happened to throw a rock it would always wind up hitting one of them. There was this one guy must have been hit like a dozen times. Not sure where I'm going with this just didn't want anyone to take it the wrong way. I have an Appalachian aboriginal friend.

@dynx haha thank you very much! I meant African Americans. But that's actually very interesting that you have such a high concentration of aboriginals..

By the way are you an International student? And/or AA?
