Switzerland has one of the largest immigrant populations in the world per capita: 29.9% according to the link below.

Perhaps you can provide some evidence for your statement.

Add those up, and you're only up to about 50%; there's a long tail out from there. * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Canada#Sources_of_immigration https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Canada#Sources_... A lot more of a mosaic/melting pot in Canada than Switzerland.
