African American migrations started after the blacks were freed from slavery by Abraham Lincoln by the Emancipation Proclamation of 1865. They typically went to a major city north - e.g., Blacks from the Carolinas went to Washington DC and New York.

When did South Americans arrive to Canada?

South Americans first arrived in Canada during the prehistoric migration of peoples across the Bering land bridge, which occurred around 15,000 years ago. However, more recent South American migration to Canada began in the late 20th century, particularly during the 1970s and 1980s, when political and economic factors prompted many to seek new opportunities in Canada. Today, there is a diverse South American community in Canada, contributing to the country's multicultural landscape.
