Foreign workers in the labour force : provincial retention after transition to permanent residency among work permit holders for work purposes / by Yuqian Lu and Feng Hou.CS36-28-0001/2024-10-2E-PDF

"This article examines the geographic retention of permanent residents who previously worked in Canada on work permits for work purposes and became landed immigrants (hereafter referred to as former work permit holders) from 2011 to 2020. The analysis begins by assessing the proportion of these former work permit holders who remained in the province or territory where they last worked before obtaining permanent residency status. It then compares their retention in the intended destination with that of economic class immigrants who had no previous experience in Canada (refer to the Data and definitions section for more details)"--Page 1.
