<br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Now,
if we take into consideration historical proportions, this would be an
extraordinarily higher number. For example, Canada sent some 600,000
troops (7.5% of the total population!!) to France in WWI, of whom the
vast majority still had British citizenship. In other words, you're
far more likely to meet a Brit in Canada than most of those other
places.</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br>Ed Alexander<br><br>•
</span><p style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Australia's population is around 20 million, so British residents
are currently 6.5% of the population. But that figure won't include
huge numbers of UK-born Australian citizens. Thaey could easily double
the figure.
