(n.) - The fact or state of something being at least visible in society, even if not everyone knows about it yet.
"You know, even if nobody has heard of my ideas for safer bike lanes yet, I hope that they can at least achieve a small degree of cameo visibility this century."

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.
