Wiktionary, the free dictionary.Visible minority is a term used primarily in Canada to describe persons who are not of the majority race in a given population. In March, 2007, the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination described the term as racist, as it singles out a specific group.[1]
In Canada, visible minorities are defined as "persons, other than Aboriginals, who are non-Caucasian in race or non-white in colour." The term is used as a demographic category used by Statistics Canada in connection with that country's multiculturalism policies. Also, visible minorities are designated as a protected group under the Canadian Employment Equity Act.
