Distribution, Inequality and Concentration of Incomeamong Older Immigrants in Canada
While there are many studies on differences in earnings between immigrants and the native‐born or among immigrant groups, they do not consider distribution and concentration of income among immigrants explicitly. These aspects are important for understanding the distribution of economic welfare and consumer behaviour among members and hence are policy relevant. Using the 1991 Census data, the distribution and concentration of incomehave been exam…
Visible Minority Income Differences
Living Arrangements and Residential Overcrowding among Older Immigrants in Canada
Because older immigrants arriving in Canada are not eligible for government transfer payments or welfare benefits for up to 10 years, many of them choose to live with their relatives or sponsors in crowded three- or more than three-generation households. Cultural preferences also influence this tendency and the propensity of immigrant groups from developing regions to live in three- or more than three-generation households ranges up to 18 times t…
A Comparative Study of Immigrant and Non‐immigrant Families in Canada with Special Reference to Income, 1986
A comparison of immigrant and non‐immigrant families in Canada based on unpublished data from the 1986 Consensus of Canada indicates that immigrant families have stronger family ties and higher income than their non‐immigrant counterparts. This could be partly because immigrant families contain higher proportions of their members at prime working ages, higher proportions with three or more employment income recipients and higher proportions worki…
Employment Income of Immigrants In Metropolitan Areas of Canada, 1980
This paper examines the economic achievements of immigrant groups and compares them with those of the Canadian-born population. Employment income in this study is income for members of the labor force who worked 40 weeks or more, full time, during 1980. The information is from the 1981 Census. The 15 birthplace groups considered in this study are classified into 2 major groups: those from traditional sources and those from non-traditional or new …
Spouse selection in Canada, 1921–78: An examination by age, sex and religion
This paper presents time series data on spouse selection in Canada for the period 1921–78. Homogamous and endogamous trends are examined by age, sex and religion. There is considerable variation in the level of endogamy amongst religious groups. With respect to age, marriages were increasingly homogamous up to 1971 and thereafter less so. Younger males increasingly tended to select brides of their own age group until the 1960s, while older males …
Asian Immigrants in Canada: Some Findings from 1981 Census
Immigrant characteristics in Canada are analyzed using data from the 1981 census. "The purpose of this paper is to focus on Asian immigrants and to compare them with immigrants born in the United Kingdom, and also to compare them with Canadian-born persons with respect to age, sex, marital status composition, educational attainment, labour force participation, class of worker, occupation and income." (summary in FRE, SPA)
Ethnic fertility differences in Canada, 1926–71: An examination of assimilation hypothesis
The changing pattern of fertility differences among ethnic groups in Canada during the period 1926–71 is studied. Two specific questions are addressed. (1) Do ethnic groups assimilate the fertility patterns of the general Canadian population over time, i.e. are the fertility differences disappearing? (2) Is the extent of assimilation in fertility greater in urban than in rural areas? The indirectly standardized general fertility rates, calculated…

Recent trends and patterns of non-Maori fertility in New Zealand
The birth rates per 1000 married females of specified ages and durations of marriage generally attained their post-war maxima in 1946–47 and then declined. While this declining trend was a brief one for females of younger ages and shorter durations of marriage, it continued for females of older ages and longer durations. Since 1961 the rates for all (younger and older) women have declined markedly. Does this recent decline in annual fertility, es…
Effect of declines in mortality on the birth rate and related measures
In this paper, the effect of declining mortality upon marital status distributions (proportions married, widowed, etc. In each age group) and through them upon birth rates and other related measures are studied while holding other factors such as “marriage pattern” and age-specific marital fertility rates constant. This was done by considering a stable population with a gross reproduction rate of 5 and expectation of life at birth 30 years (initi…
