Per Statistics Canada, Canada's immigrant population is highly educated, 90% emigrated legally, and a large percentage are Asian in origin.

Is it safe to say that doesn't reflect recent (last 25 years) immigration patterns to the U.S. or to Western Europe?

Are the stats I quoted so out of context as to be worthy of downvoting?

I think it's an honest perspective and would have an impact on the educational outcomes of immigrant populations.
