Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Immigration in Canada in the middle of the twentieth century led to significant disparities in status and treatment between European immigrants and those from Asia. European immigrants were generally favored in immigration policies and societal acceptance, while Asian immigrants faced discrimination and were often relegated to lower-status positions, reflecting broader racial prejudices of the time.
