> which is why Canada has so few hispanic and black people, and why it's nearly 80% white.
Er, or it's not bordered by Mexico and doesn't have nearly the extensive history with African slavery that the US does?
> Why don't more poor black people immigrate into Canada from cities like Detroit, Chicago or New York?
I'm not trying to argue one way or another for Canada's immigration system (I know very little about it), but this is a very simplistic argument.
Why don't all the ex-coal miners in WV simply move to where the jobs are?
Picking up and relocating your life is way, way more involved than you're making it sound.
> It's simple, they're not allowed to.
This is also the case in the US, hence the widespread fears about illegal immigrants.
If life was significantly better in Canada, one would expect far more illegal immigration.
