How many Poles in (the other) London?
Posted by: the POLSKI blog
It would seem London – any London – is quite popular with Poles.
To be honest, I had no idea that the Canadian city of London, Ontario was also a popular destination for Poles. But an article I’ve just seen on a Canadian site, the London Free Press claims that:
An estimated 20,000 Polish people call London home. Many came to Canada after the Second World War and more still during the Cold War in the 1980s.
A different country, the same reasons for migrating. And quite a big Polish community, it would seem.
