I wouldn’t even say the majority of the Sikh community in BC is middle class. I am not sure if stats exist for this kind of thing, but I would bet they out of every ethnic group in the province, they hold the most disproportionate amount of wealth. I could be wrong, but I would be surprised if the above isn’t true.
