L'article établi l'existence d'une échelle des groupes ethniques et raciales, selon leur position sociale, au Canada anglophone et francophone. Les données de l'étude étaient recueillies pendant une étude sur le prestige professionnel, utilisant une forme de question identique pour obtenir l'échelle ethnique et l'échelle professionnelle. On peut, donc, examiner si les évaluations des groupes ethniques et raciales démontrent moins de consensus que les évaluations des professions. This paper establishes the existence of a ranking of ethnic and racial groups, according to social standing, within English and French Canada. Since the data used in the study were collected as part of a national study of occupational prestige, and used an identical question format, it is possible to test whether the degree of consensus in this ranking is as great as that for the ranking of occupations.
