Refugee youth in particular struggle in accessing PSE. In 2011, youth who immigrated to Canada before the age of 15 had high school and university completion rates that were higher than those of third- or higher-generation Canadians. However, another Statistics Canada report found that children of refugees had a much lower completion of university than children of economic migrants and skilled workers. A study from York University states that a large and growing percentage of refugees have…

In Canada, the economic impact of immigration is a significant matter. Canada is welcoming more numbers of immigrant compare to other countries per year. Also, it is a fact that almost 20% of people in Canada are immigrants, or come from immigrant descent that is because Canada has one of the highest immigration rates in the world. There are four classes of immigrant, the first one is the family class which is closely related to people who are Canadian citizens living in Canada, economic…

Canada is a large country with a variety of industries. Because it is a country with a highly educated workforce that expects creative and flexible work places, Canada must be considered to be a postindustrial society. Hughes (2011) defines an industrial society as one in which sources of energy fuel a production system to process raw materials. Examples of such industry in Canada would include the oil industry at Fort McMurray Alberta, the Diamond mines in the N.W.T. farming in the central…

countries, especially for people of Japanese descent living in Canada. The Japanese-Canadian internment is a defining moment in Canada because it shows how poorly the Canadian governments, politicians, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), and labour unions treated Japanese-Canadians. They had no freedom; were incarcerated in internment, road, or prisoners-of-war camps; and lastly, were unequal compared to everyone else living in Canada, especially the white people. After Japan bombed the…

development are diverse across provinces in Canada.

However, New Brunswick earns a "C" grade, which is the worst performance among the provinces in Canada. There is also variation in employment and unemployment growth across provinces. These divergences of economic performances across provinces in Canada prompts provincial mobility. This…

Abstract In Canada, youth face a number of challenges in the labour market. Research has pointed a few issues, which this population faces. Notably, health and safety needs in youth are not sufficiently addressed thereby increasing the likelihood of young workers accruing work-related injuries. Additionally, there is significant difference between youth and adult unemployment rates. A review of sources shows that there is a constant pattern of high rates of unemployment in youth compared to…

without the United Kingdom, Canada would not exist in the form it does today. As it is today however, Canada lives without leadership from the United Kingdom, but they still are connected through the British Commonwealth. The Canadians I found the Union Jack significant enough to have it fill the entire flag, but keep it as a fade to prioritize the Canadian aspect of the Canadian flag. Secondly, I added the two known Aboriginal flags as they are the original inhabitants of Canada. The blue…

majorities causes racial discrimination, no one can deny the fact that the structure and formation of Canada are deeply rooted in white people and their culture. It is clear that minorities are ignorant about the culture and practice of social work in Canada. Lack of knowledge about the Canadian context of social work by foreign workers is a reason for not to have a good position in this field. In Canada, the social work career is basically a white occupation (Yee, 2005). Majorities claim that…

Canada has long contested policy choices in regards to equalization payments. Equalization is the central government of Canada making equalizing payments to Canadian provinces that are less wealthy than others in order to equalize all the provinces’ fiscal capacity. Provinces that receive equalization payments have traditionally been referred to as “have not provinces” as opposed to “have provinces”. The program of equalization was created with equality between provinces as its aim however with…
