Old Stock Canadians is a term referring to Western European Canadians whose families have lived in Canada for many generations (prior to Confederation). It is used by some to refer exclusively to English-speaking Canadians with British Isles settler ancestors, but it usually refers to British/Irish Canadians and French Canadians as parallel old stock groups.
