He's still trying to grasp that 49% of Australia's population is either first- or second-generation migrants, or that 1/4 of New Zealander's have brown skin.

The silly mistake of lumping all migrants in together and saying what applies to one country is a good rule to apply to every country.
Finland Finn 93.4%, Swede 5.7%, Sami (Lapp) 0.1%, Roma 0.2%, Estonian 0.2%
Denmark Scandinavian, Inuit, Faroese, German, Turkish, Iranian, Somali
Norway Norwegian, Sami 20,000
Iceland homogeneous mixture of Norse/Celtic descendants 94%, population of foreign origin 6%
Netherlands Dutch 83%, other 17% (9% of non-Western origin, mainly Turks, Moroccans, Antilleans, Surinamese, and Indonesians) (1999 est.)
Switzerland German 65%, French 18%, Italian 10%, Romansch 1%, other 6%
Sweden indigenous population: Swedes with Finnish and Sami minorities; foreign-born or first-generation immigrants: Finns, Yugoslavs, Danes, Norwegians, Greeks, Turks
New Zealand European 69.8%, Maori 7.9%, Pacific Islander 4.4%, Asian 5.7%, other 0.5%, mixed 7.8%, unspecified 3.8% (2001)
Canada British Isles origin 28%, French origin 23%, other European 15%, indigenous Indian and Inuit 2%, other, mostly Asian, African, Arab 6%, mixed background 26%
Austria Austrians 91.1%, former Yugoslavs 4% (includes Croatians, Slovenes, Serbs, Bosniaks), Turks 1.6%, German 0.9%, other or unspecified 2.4% (2001)
There is a few common factors there. But the overall decider on how happy countries are comes down to wealth of the people (not a few), healthcare, education, homes, safety, space, culture and most certainly not about colour. If people of countries like Syria, Congo, Pakistan were to act like the people of Finland, Denmark or Norway.
They would be a lot happier.
