And, yes, some NL'ers do speak of being first or second generation Canadian (I would be first gen).

They were listed in separate lines, so I assume they're separate groups. 29.1% seems high, yes, but if there was a neighbourhood where it could be possible in St. John's, mine is definitely among the top 2-3.
