Socioeconomic profiles of immigrants in the four Atlantic provinces. Phase II : focus on vibrant communities / [by] Ather H. Akbari, Wimal Rankaduwa. : Ci4-40/1-2010E-PDF
Analyzes socioeconomic and demographic profiles of immigrants resident in vibrant communities of Atlantic Canada, i.e., communities having several economic and non-economic factors that are attractive for an immigrant to locate there. Economic factors include the presence of a dominant industry, a labour market, wages, and possibility of employment. Non-economic factors could include the presence of an immigrant community, especially from a similar ethnic background, which would play the role of an information network, thereby easing the settlement of new arrivals. Three cities (Census Metropolitan Areas), Halifax, Saint John’s and Charlottetown, two counties (Census Divisions), Colchester and Carleton, and one village (Census Sub Division), Florenceville, are identified as vibrant communities for the purpose of this study.
