A somewhat contradictory and ironic term that Canadian bureaucrats love to use. Likely stems from the fact that Canada wants to be seen as "multicultural" and championing social justice values, but at the same time you have to be seriously joking to think that labelling people as a "visible minority" makes people feel included. If anything it has the exact opposite effect, like who tf wants to be labelled a minority? Incredibly idiotic term that only serves the benefit of bureaucrats.
Bureaucrat: Are you a visible minority?
Person 1: Visible minority? *chuckles baffledly* Who thought this term was a good idea?
Bureaucrat: I don't know I'm jus—
Person 1: Global majority would've been much more apt, because most humans aren’t white. But no, you bureaucrats cling to this clunky term, patting yourselves on the back for “diversity” while reinforcing the very divides they claim to bridge.

Get the I hate women and minorities mug.The process whereby an all-white institution or virtually all-white institution usually a university attempts to deceive those who are on the outside looking in into believing it is a diverse institution. Common ways of doing this include disproportionately making minorities tour leaders for students coming to see the institution, making the face of the school website a minority, making the face of the orientation books and academic catalogs minorities,etc...
This often sucks in actual minorities into believing that they will be in a diverse institution only to suffer a massive culture shock within the first two to three weeks of their actual arrival at school.
