Canadians in the United Kingdom, or Canadian Britons, are people from Canada living in the United Kingdom and their descendants. In 2001 some 72,518 people born in Canada were living in the UK according to the UK census.[5] Of the ten census tracts with the highest Canadian-born populations, nine were in London, with the other being Cambridge West.[6] The Office for National Statistics estimates that, in 2009, 82,000 Canadian-born people were living in the UK.[7] In 2011 this was the third largest community in the Canadian diaspora after Canadians in the United States and Canadians in Hong Kong.[8]
