Using the Family Public Use Microdata Sample file (PUMS-F) of the 1981 (1%) and 1991 (3%) Censuses of Canada, this paper examines patterns and changes in propensities to intermarry for Asians in Canada from 1981 to 1991. A logistic response model is used to explore the relative importance of couples individual characteristics and socioeconomic status on intermarriage. An upward trend of Asian intermarriage in the past two decades was not evident in the Canadian data. Multivariate analyses suggest the individual's achieved socioeconomic characteristics have become more critical in the process of interracial assortative mating over time. More specifically, educational and employment heterogamous couples are more likely to be intermarried, especially when the wife's achievement exceeds that of the husband's
