Laotian Canadian
Either this article should be radically expanded, or merged into something Laotian/Canadian related MacRusgail 19:57, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep ethnicities are all notable in my opinion. There is a significant population of immigrants from Laos in Canada, and I think they should be noted.  Similarly, there are articles here about Portuguese Canadians and so forth.   Molotov   (talk)  [[Image:Flag of California.svg|25px]]   20:04, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment - see also my comments in Laotian French article's discussion. According to the article itself, there aren't many of them (well under 20,000 in a country of over 30 million), but it doesn't really say much else other than they are Canadians of Laotian origin, which you can work out from the title itself. Not really sure where that gets us. Would prefer more info. --MacRusgail 09:01, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep as per User Molotov. Capitalistroadster 00:50, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Not being overly knowledgeable about the Laotian community, I don't personally know what can be done to expand it, but it's every bit as keepable and expandable as any other article about an identifiable ethnic minority group in a multicultural country. Bearcat 22:14, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as per what Bearcat says. Luigizanasi 00:57, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
