title: The labour market experiences of Canadian immigrants.
abstract: The economic adaptation of immigrants to Canada is analyzed using government data on the labor force and landed immigrants.  In particular, the labor force experience of a sample of immigrants in Canada is examined and compared with that of a Canadian cohort with regard to length of unemployment and income.  "Differences in unemployment and insurable earnings are examined by age, sex, immigrant category..., world area of last permanent residence, official language abilities, education, and region of residence."
