In May 2006 I emigrated to Canada from The Netherlands. To get a better idea of how many people from The Netherlands and from all over the world, the two graphs below represent two subsets of the total number of immigrants to Canada by country of origin for the year 2006.
The first graph shows the top 20 ranked countries by number of immigrants. The second graph shows The Neterlands and the three countries above and below it in ranking.
Where applicable The Netherlands are highlighted in Orange (as it is my personal country of origin), and The United States of America are highlighted in blue as that is the country where I am taking the course.
Note that after a short delay, holding the mouse over a bar of a specific country, a tooltip will show up with the exact number of immigrants.
Hover over the bar to see the actual value.
