Hindus in Canada generally come from one of two groups. The first is comprised primarily of Indian immigrants who began arriving in British Columbia about 100 years ago and continue to immigrate today. The other group is made up of Canadian converts to the various sects of Hinduism through the efforts of Hare Krishna, the Gurus during the last 50 years, and other organizations.
Due to the liberalization of Canadian immigration policies many Hindus from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Trinidad, Guyana and Eastern African nations such as Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania along with South Africa have arrived in the great metropolises of Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.
These communities have formed over 100 temple societies across the country that essentially functions community organizations. Some of these associations also have established private schools in Toronto to compete with secular and Catholic school boards that most Hindu students go to.
