Immigrant fertility patterns in Canada, 1961-1986.
"This paper has examined the fertility of immigrants who arrived in Canada at various periods in the recent past.  Cumulative and current fertility measures derived from 1961, 1971, 1981 and 1986 censuses have indicated that immigrants tend to have children at a lower rate during the periods when they are immigrating, but at a higher rate after immigrating. However, once they have resided in the host country for a certain length of time, their fertility may either converge with that of the native-born population or may become even lower."
