The Jewish population of Canada is approximately 385,000, with a majority living in either Toronto (200,000) or Montreal (100,000). Following the end of World War II, some 40,000 Holocaust survivors, stemming mainly from Eastern Europe, resettled in Canada (third in number behind Israel and the United States).<ref>Franklin Bialystok, Delayed Impact: The Holocaust and the Canadian Jewish Community, 1945-1985 (Montreal: McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2000).
