The sixth wave, beginning in the 1970s, drew especially upon peoples of the southern hemisphere. The fifth wave, drawn from other Canadian provinces and from Europe and elsewhere, commenced in the late 1940s. It occurred from 1897 to 1929, with a pause (1914–22) during and after the First World War. The fourth and by far the largest wave was drawn from many nations, mostly European.

The Canadian Prairies were peopled in six great waves of migration, spanning from prehistory to the present.
