Relevant for this series (Figures 1A-E): Earnings are expected to increase with age as people acquire more experience in the labour market. As expected, older adults between the ages of 45 and 64 have higher earnings for all but one level of education. For every age group, all immigrants have lower annual earnings than Canadian-born adults. The lowest earners for both Canadian-born and immigrants are those in the 25-34 age groups, and recent entrants in the labour market. Relevant for this figure: At the bottom of the labour market, middle-aged adults between the ages of 35 and 44 years who did not finish high school have higher earnings than 45 to 64 year-olds with the same education. www.yorku.ca/tiedi/pubreports.html

Relevant for this series (Figures 2A-E): Regardless of their levels of education, male and female immigrants usually earn less on average than Canadian-born men and women. Immigrant men who did not finish high school are the only exception to this pattern. Their earnings are approximately $750 higher than those of Canadian-born men with the same educational attainment. The earnings gap is most pronounced for immigrant men who arrived between 2001 and 2006. The earnings gap is also largest for recent immigrant women. Canadian-born and immigrant women consistently earn less than their male counterparts. The earnings gap between men and women increases with education. www.yorku.ca/tiedi/pubreports.html

Relevant for this series (Figures 3A-E): The unemployment rates for all immigrants are generally higher than for Canadian-born adults across educational groups. The unemployment rate is also lower for immigrants who have lived longer in Canada. With more recent periods of immigration, the unemployment rate is higher at all levels of education. There is little fluctuation in the unemployment rates for all immigrants across levels of educational attainment. The Canadian-born unemployment rates vary, decreasing with higher levels of educational attainment. Education reduces unemployment rates for both Canadian-born and immigrant adults. The immigrant unemployment rate for the same educational groups also declines, but the impact of education is smaller. www.yorku.ca/tiedi/pubreports.html
