Colombian Canadians (French: Canadiens d'origine Colombienne) are Canadian citizens of Colombian descent or Colombian-born people who reside in Canada. They can be Canadian Born citizens who become nationalized in Colombia too. According to the 2011 Census there were 76,580 Canadians who claimed full or partial Colombian ancestry. Colombian Canadians are the largest South American immigrant group in Canada and the second Latin American immigrant group after Mexican Canadians.[3] Of the Colombian Canadians that have been nationalized in Colombia, some are found living in the Antioquia department region.

Also, Colombians are one of the fastest growing groups from Latin America. Most of them reside in the province of Ontario in the cities of Toronto (12,235; 0.5%),[4] Mississauga (5,190; 0.7%),[5] London, Ontario (4,200; 1.1%),[6] Ottawa (1,945; 0.2%),[7] Hamilton (1,915; 0.4%),[8] Brampton, Ontario (1,670; 0.3%),[9] Kitchener, Ontario (1,660; 0.7%),[10] Vaughan, Ontario (1,225; 0.4%),[11] Milton, Ontario (1,150; 1.0%),[12] Burlington, Ontario (1,000; 0.6%)[13] Oakville, Ontario (950; 0.5%),[14] St. Catharine's, Ontario (730; 0.6%),[15] Richmond Hill, Ontario (495; 0.3%),[16] and Niagara Falls, Ontario (385; 0.5%)[17] followed by Quebec in cities of Montreal (11,545; 0.7%),[18] Quebec City (3,185; 0.6%),[19] Laval (2,615; 0.6%),[20] Longueuil (2,300; 1.0%),[21] Gatineau, Quebec (1,730; 0.6%),[22] Sherbrooke (1,320; 0.8%),[23] and Trois-Rivières, Quebec (755; 0.6%).[24] The province of Alberta has a modest sized and growing Colombian community with Calgary (7,145; 0.6%)[25] and Edmonton (3,335; 0.4%)[26] hosting the bulk of the Colombian community in Alberta.
