If this is true there are some weird scenarios that come to mind, like for some reason I just can't picture an East Indian with a Newfie accent.....

It's pretty cool actually. A friend of mine is ethnic Chinese, but her family has lived in Jamaica for generations. She's lost her accent but her mom, a 58 yr old Asian woman talks with a perfect Rastafarian accent. You kind of expect her to sound one way but instead it's WAYYYYY off the mark... pretty awesome!
Now that is just wierd. I once dated a girl who was Chinese that was born in Auckland, which I thought was odd, but a rasta-oriental??? Did she have dreads?

Thats actually becoming a big 'problem' for Australia/New Zealand.

Millions upon millions of Asians would love to move to ANZAC because there's tons of space, first world living conditions, generally like a warm Canada (and quite close to their origins too).

One of the big future social-issues is going to be the ANZAC's trying to keep the hordes from hopping into boats and heading south, Cuban/Florida style.
