Well here are the stats from Canada's 2001 census:
English (20.17%)
French (15.75%)
Scottish (14.03%)
Irish (12.90%)
German (9.25%)
Italian (4.29%)
Chinese (3.69%)
Ukrainian (3.61%)
First Nations (3.38%)
Dutch (3.12%)
Polish (2.76%)
East Indian (2.41%)
Black African (2.23%)
Norwegian (1.23%)
Portuguese (1.21%)
Welsh(1.18%)
Jewish (1.18%)
Russian (1.14%)
Filipino (1.11%)
Métis (1.04%)
Swedish (0.95%)
Hungarian (0.90%)

We may not have the same population demographic as the U.S. but it is still very diverse. Not sure what any of this has to do with a countries propensity for violence and crime, unless it is your contention that it is the immigrant population who is largely responsible for crime rates?
