Description

Canada's approach to immigration has faced major challenges in recent years. among the, the gap between earnings of recent immigrants in Canada and their Canadian-born contemprories has been browing, and the time it takes to close the gap has been lengthening. What has gone wrong? What to do about it? The authors provide a panoramic view of shifts in Canada's skilled-immigration policies and the strenghts and weaknesses of the points system used to screen new arrivals. They identify the policy levers that affect the attributes and success rates of new arrivals and break new ground in provinding a tool by which to measure those impacts. Essential reading for all who care about the tough questions of immigration policy.
