Immigration and the Canadian Earnings Distribution in the First Half of the Twentieth Century
We use newly available micro-data from the 1911 to 1941 Canadian Censuses to investigate the impact of immigration on the Canadian earnings distribution in the first half of the twentieth century. We show that Canadian inequality rose sharply in the inter-war years, particularly in the 1920s, coinciding with two of the largest immigration decades in Canadian history. We find that immigration was not the main force driving changes in the earnings …
Combined seismic tomographic and ultrashallow seismic reflection study of an Early Dynastic mastaba, Saqqara, Egypt
Mastabas were large rectangular structures built for the funerals and burials of the earliest Pharaohs. One such mastaba was the basic building block that led to the first known stone pyramid, the >4600‐year old Step Pyramid within the Saqqara necropolis of Egypt. We have tested a number of shallow geophysical techniques for investigating in a non‐invasive manner the subsurface beneath a large Early Dynastic mastaba located close to the Step Pyra…
Intolerance and psychopathology: Toward a general diagnosis for racism, sexism, and homophobia
Racism, sexism, and homophobia do not fit into any current diagnostic category. The authors propose that those who engage in such behaviors display a form of psychopathology deserving of its own category. The common denominator seems to be intolerance. The authors explore the possibility of an intolerant personality disorder, outline likely symptoms, and suggest some possible treatment considerations
Dominion or Republic? Migrants to North America from the United Kingdom, 1870-1910
Late nineteenth-century Canada attracted a large number of immigrants from the UK, despite far lower average income per head there than in the US. While urban labour markets in the northern US were much larger than those in Canada, differences in outcomes between UK immigrants in Canadian and in northern US cities were small. Average annual real earnings by occupation group were only 10 to 15 per cent lower in Canadian cities. Individual-level ce…
The Economic Goals of Canada's Immigration Policy: Past and Present
We examine the economic goals of current immigration policy and what role immigration should play in overall economic policy. We proceed by describing the economic goals of immigration policy throughout this century. We then describe current economically targeted elements of immigration policy and relate them to historical trends. Finally, we examine a set of potential economic goals for immigration suggested by Canada's policy history. We conclu…

Balanced Growth and the Geographical Distribution of European Immigrant Arrivals to Canada, 1900-1912
Policy Forum on the Role of Immigration in Canada's Future
This is a report on a conference held in Kingston Ontario in October 1988 concerning the role of immigration in Canadas future. The first session contains four introductory papers one of which deals with Quebecs perspective. Also included are two papers on labor market adjustment and two papers on social adjustment. The fourth session was a panel discussion on objectives levels composition and directions of future immigration. (ANNOTATION)
Recovery from the Depression: Australia and the World Economy in the 1930s
In Australia's economic history, as in the nation's politics and culture, the Great Depression is a dominant theme. An international group of economists and economic historians has collaborated, in this volume, to look at the ways in which Australia survived economic depression and recovered from it, in the context of international comparison. A range of different aspects of these questions are considered. Chapters look at both the agricultural s…
