Nigerian Canadians are a Canadian ethnic group of Nigerian descent. Nigerians began migrating to Canada during the 1967–1970 Nigerian Civil War.[2] Nigerians were not broken out separately in immigration statistics until 1973. 3,919 landed immigrants of Nigerian nationality arrived in Canada from 1973 to 1991.[3]

There is a significant number of Nigerians living in the Greater Toronto Area.[4] In the 2016 census, 51,800 people identified themselves as Nigerians, of whom about half lived in Ontario. There are many more Nigerians in Canada, who identified themselves by their tribe instead of their country, such as 16,210 are Yoruba, 18,315 are Igbo, and 17,275 are from minor tribes. There has also been a steady increase in the number of Nigerians living in the western cities of Canada, such as Calgary, Edmonton, and Winnipeg.[5]
