The data provide a breakdown of the ethnicity of the 18,091 men and boys who police took action against for a range of violent and sexual offences in London in 2009-10.
They show that among those proceeded against for street crimes, 54 per cent were black; for robbery, 59 per cent; and for gun crimes, 67 per cent. Street crimes include muggings, assault with intent to rob and snatching property. Just over 12 per cent of London’s 7.5 million population is black, including those of mixed black and white parentage, while 69 per cent is white, according to the Office for National Statistics.

The French in Canada had African slaves in the 1600s and 1700s before England took over in the 1760s...
There were many black Loyalists during the American Revolution...
escaped slaves etc..and slaves who accompanied their Loyalist masters when they fled into Canada...
They were given their freedom by the British when they went to Canada if they had fought on the British side...
also the Underground Railway ended in Niagara and then the former slaves went elsewhere to hide from the bounty hunters coming North to find them...
There are quite a few black Canadians...
