900. Nine. Zero. Zero.
In Ontario.
A quick google search indicates over 750,000 people of Indian heritage in the province. It took about 30 secs to find that info.

Here's what I've come to suspect. Wokeness don kill many pioneer Buharists. Most pre-2015 Buharists, esp intellectuals, were not grounded in reality. They had a romanticised view of @MBuhari and the rigours of governance when they, unsolicited, clothed him with a messiah complex.
With heads in the clouds, they became quickly disillusioned once he became @NGRPresident and they realised he had no wand to wave to conjure up the #Utopia of their dreams. As time wore on & it became evident that he could not call forth the things that be not as if they were...
...their disappointment (often born, not of enlightened comparative analysis of leadership in Nigeria) ripened to hatred for their man. Worse, such persons found themselves targets of vicious 'dragging' on social media by agents provocateurs of the former irredeemable regimes...
#Thread What type of bottom feeding media attacks educators during a pandemic? The same one that wished a #HurricaneKatrina on #CPS. I’m guessing their goal is to remain on brand? #Trash #Covid19 chicagotribune.com/opinion/editor…
