Cabinet members facing re-election commissioned Privy Council research on whether Filipino-Canadian voters felt they were getting enough “attention,” newly-disclosed records show. Liberals currently hold all but three of the ten largest Filipino ridings nationwide.

“Asked whether they felt that the Government of Canada paid attention to and understood the issues important to the Filipino community, a large number believed that it did,” said a Privy Council report. “It was generally thought that the federal government placed a high priority on protecting and celebrating diversity throughout Canada and that there was a wide range of cultural resources available to Filipinos in many parts of the country.”
