“Keep or Push?” The Retention of Canadian Postsecondary Graduates in Their Study Cities
As smaller Canadian regions continue to face retention challenges, there is a question as to how postsecondary graduates can contribute to the alleviation of this issue by remaining in their study locations postgraduation. While most previous studies have focused on regional internal mobility trends and rarely engaged causality, this study delves into the potential causal factors that influence retention of postsecondary graduates at the city lev…
The Short-Term Labour Market Outcome of Resettled Refugees in Canada
Which Move Matters More
Residential and school mobility are central features of childhood that can shape later educational outcomes. This study examines how these two forms of mobility—spatial and institutional—affect the likelihood of completing high school on time in Canada. Using a linked dataset from the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) and administrative education records, we assess how the timing, frequency, and type of move influence edu…
Does moving young matter? Examining the relationship between childhood residential mobility and mathematics scores
Although considerable research looks at the effects of mobility on various outcomes, few studies differentiate between changes schools versus changing dwellings, even though the effects are likely to be different in terms of academic performance. In this paper, we rely on a random effects regression model using a longitudinal survey containing roughly 700,000 families over a 16-year period to differentiate between these two types of mobility. Fir…
Resettlement of the first wave of Syrian refugees in Canada
This paper uses a unique, linked administrative data file to examine the impact of language training and employment‐related services on the employment income of the first wave of Syrian refugees admitted to Canada between 2015 and 2016. The analysis reveals a significant positive relationship between refugees' access to employment‐related services and higher employment income. However, this positive effect is not observed for participants in lang…

Homeownership amongst second-generation immigrants in Canada
Homeownership is a primary aspiration for many immigrants to Canada, and although copious literature follows the progression of newer arrivals, much less research focuses on the success levels of their children, particularly those born in Canada. In this article, we look at the homeownership rates of second-generation Black, Chinese, South Asian, and White Immigrants, comparing them to each other and their first-generation counterparts. We find s…

Household Formation in Canada and the United States
This study focuses on the fastest changing component of housing demand in the future—the immigrant and minority groups, age 25–84. Using the 2006 and 2016 Canadian censuses and American Community Surveys, we compare headship and homeownership rates of both immigrants and native-born Whites in Canada and the United States. We model the probability of being a renter head, owner head, or nonhousehold head by fitting a multinomial logistic regression…
Employment success of social assistance recipients
Poverty continues to burden millions of Canadians each year, and social assistance (SA) is one program that provides last-resort financial assistance, conditional upon looking for and accepting work. Using tax panel data of SA recipients from across seven Canadian regions between 2000 and 2018, we model the probabilities of employment success (ES) across industry of employment, SA benefit amounts, unionization, and individual-level characteristic…
Leaving Home Ain't Easy
Leaving the parental home to live independently has long been a marker of one's transition to adulthood and a sign of immigrant adaptation to the host country. The timing and pathways of home-leaving are important for both the housing trajectories of young adults and the overall housing demand of immigrant receiving areas. However, young adults-immigrants or not- have increasingly been delaying this transition, opting instead to stay in the paren…

Bonding social ties
Upon migrating to a new country, immigrants will often turn to their ethnic communities for support, forming bonding social ties in the process. However, there are also those who form bridging ties by reaching outside of one’s immediate ethnic group. The social position occupied by individuals in society is maintained and reproduced by the cultural and human capital they possess, wherein the socialised dispositions, conceptions, and level of educ…
The demographic determinants of inter-provincial migration declines in Canada
This article studies the link between observed demographic changes and Canadian inter-provincial migration declines. Alongside recent changes in age composition, educational attainment, marital trends, and immigration, Canadian internal migration has widely been in decline. In this context, our project investigates the demographic determinants of Canadian provincial migration and the correlation between Canada’s socio-demographic shifts and the d…
Studying the social determinants of Covid‐19 in a data vacuum
Race-based and other demographic information on COVID-19 patients is not being collected consistently across provinces in Canada. Therefore, whether the burden of COVID-19 is falling disproportionately on the shoulders of particular demographic groups is relatively unknown. In this article, we first provide an overview of the available geographic and demographic data related to COVID-19. We then make creative use of these existing data to fill th…
Mental health and economic concerns from March to May during the Covid-19 pandemic in Canada
These findings suggest that policies to mitigate economic stress, such as Canada's Emergency Response Benefit, may have eased mental health deterioration in early pandemic months through a reduction in financial hardship. Interventions to increase the economic security of the population will have far-reaching consequences in terms of improved mental health, and should be continued throughout the pandemic
Will They Stay or Will They Go? Examining the Brain Drain in Canada's Provincial North
Brain drain is an increasingly important concern for local governments in northern communities in Canada in maintaining and enhancing human capital levels to sustain vibrant economies and communities. Researchers, however, have yet to examine the magnitude of north-south out-migration nor do we know the characteristics of youth who are likely to relocate. Our study contributes to this knowledge gap by employing multiple waves from Statistics Cana…
Age of the oldest child and internal migration of immigrant families
Immigrant parents report better opportunities for their children as the rationale for moving internationally. Residential mobility is associated with poorer outcomes for school‐age children. Many immigrant families prioritise child opportunities in their mobility decisions, especially those with school‐age children. These families may refrain from moving within the destination country to avoid such outcomes. Whether or not this is true is unknown…
Job changing and internal mobility
Considerable research focuses on why internal migration rates are declining across most of the Western world. Several studies also look at why people are less likely to change jobs than they were in the past. In this paper, we look at the prospect of declining economic returns as an explanation for the joint decline in both phenomena in Canada. We use the Canadian Employer‐Employee Dynamics Database, a linked job–individual–family–firm data set, …
Becoming Permanent
In recent years, Canada has been not only welcoming growing numbers of temporary foreign workers (TFWs), but also, increasingly, creating pathways that allow workers and their families to become permanent residents. In this paper, we use a series of unique longitudinal files to study the factors that predict a TFW’s transition to permanence. We find that age, sex, skill level and duration as a temporary resident are all important factors for unde…

The impacts of housing affordability on the household formation and homeownership of immigrant groups in Canada
Counting and Contemporary Governance
In many ways, the Census of Canada barely touches the lives of Canadians. It happens once every five years, requires only a few minutes to complete, and then nothing is heard from Statistics Canada, the agency responsible for administering the quincennial headcount, for nearly a year. As results begin to trickle out, only the smallest segments of society consult the information, and it is not always clear what they do with their newfound knowledg…
Is gateway city clustering behind Canada's declining immigrant home‐ownership rates
Recently, home‐ownership rates have been dropping for Canadian immigrants. These declines, although substantial in their own right, are particularly striking when read alongside the trends of the Canadian‐born, who've experienced a comparative surge in recent years. Given that immigrants overwhelmingly cluster in Canada's ‘gateway’ census metropolitan areas (CMAs) of Toronto, Montréal and Vancouver, this paper uses 2‐stage least squares regressio…

Studying the Impact of Religion on Fertility in Nineteenth-Century Canada
A beta version of the machine-readable 1881 census of Canada is used to assess the efficacy of two proxy variables used to predict fertility: (1) the share of church seats held by various church denominations in an areal unit and (2) the proportion of children with biblical names. Weak evidence is found for both measures, although the article questions whether these relationships can be interpreted as evidence for the importance of religious libe…
Disciplining Statistics
As its title implies, Disciplining Statistics concerns itself with understanding how demography and vital statistics became institutionalized as disciplines in France and England.In this book, Libby Schweber focuses less on "competing forms of facticity" and more on differences in the process of institutional recognition and disciplinary consolidation.For her, then, it is not just the degree of fit between demography and the political agendas of …
