Ah trick question - it depends which country they are in.

That's not very helpful - is that in each city, or the total for all 3?

I'd have thought that was obvious.

Okay, lol so there's no figures out there? I've read there are about 140,000 expats in Perth Australia.

That's a lot. It'd be interesting to know exactly how many are in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto :nod:

Do we have a definition and legal qualifier for what an ex pat is?
Is it someone who was born and lived in the UK?
Someone born elsewhere to a parent who was British but has lived in the UK
Someone who has a British parent who has never lived in the UK?

Or is it going to be the typical North American version of someone saying they are English/Scottish/Welsh or Irish.
Then when asked where did they live or born they reply well I wasnt born there and have never lived there but my grandparents came from there.
You all know the type who will be dressed in full regalia and telling everybody about how Scottish/Irish they are. Sure they maybe wearing that Scottish skirt they call a kilt (its still a skirt :lol:) and have no trace of the accent.

That has actually been researched, and the results published here.
