Human Resources committee  Let me restate that. It's the effect on immigrants' income of not having their credentials recognized?

Human Resources committee  You could do a comparison between certain ones whose credentials...for example, engineers. You could go by occupation and look at those incomes versus incomes for others. There are probably things you could do analytically. I don't think we would be able to say that this group

Human Resources committee  I don't think there's a particular reason. I'm not sure about literacy rates for seniors and how they related to the overall population. This slide was really meant to highlight demographics where literacy looked like it was important in terms of their risk of low income. It may

Human Resources committee  They are correlated with income. Of course there's a range of education and income levels in each of these groups, but we find that where there is an investment in education, there is an equalization.

Human Resources committee  I wanted to put that in, because I was once asked whether, if tuition fees were lower, more people would get an education.

Human Resources committee  Recent analysis I have looked at on that topic suggests— for example, I mentioned at the beginning of my presentation the innovative work we're doing to try to understand pathways to education. In the Maritimes, we did that as our pilot. If you look at cohorts as they graduate, t

Human Resources committee  We do. We have those figures. I would have put them in if I'd had more than seven minutes. You do see a difference. The higher quintiles have greater savings, but they're not insignificant savings for those in the lowest areas.

Human Resources committee  I didn't put these data into the presentation, but this work has definitely been done. The impact of post-secondary education remains after controlling for other factors. I don't know if you want to add anything, Klarka, on that.

Human Resources committee  Thank you very much. It's a pleasure to be here this morning. I am going to go through the presentation, which I believe was distributed. In the centre for education statistics at StatsCan, we are currently undertaking a number of innovative new initiatives around data for educ

Status of Women committee  There are a lot of data already available. I know that we do have a representative on this group. I've looked through some of the documents. I know that there is already beginning to be some thinking about where the sources of data would come from. It probably won't just be from
