Best practices and best strategies used by Anglophone organizations to welcome and integrate immigrants in Québec City / Michèle Vatz Laaroussi ... [et al.] ; in collaboration with Voice of English Québec...: Ci4-159/2016E-PDF
"This study is about the best practices and strategies deployed by organizations in Québec City that welcome Anglophone immigrants, or Allophone immigrants whose first official language spoken is English, and that help such immigrants settle in that city. The first mission we set out to achieve was to describe and analyse the services and resources that the Québec City Anglophone community makes available with a view to welcoming these Anglophone immigrants and giving them support. We also identified the resources within the Francophone community that work with Anglophone organizations to help deliver this intake and settlement assistance. The second mission was to consult Anglophone immigrants in Québec City, and the Anglophone community of that city, to analyse how these services, and the practices associated with them, influence welcoming, integration and retention. We identified the best practices and strategies used by the community that have positive and promising effects for immigrants and community vitality. Lastly, by comparing these practices and strategies with those deployed in another minority Anglophone community (Sherbrooke) and in a Francophone minority community (Edmonton), we reflected on two dimensions of these best practices: the contextual dimension, which is tied to each locality and community; and the dimension that is transferable to other communities and localities"--Introd., p. 2.
