Citizenship and Immigration committee I do not recall the text, Mr. Chair. Economic immigrants, overall, have been increasing their average and median income. We will have to check that and come back.

Public Accounts committee Absolutely. We look at gender-based analysis, source country, and visible minorities. We are able to monitor.... For instance, the Canadian census 2016 has been linked to our landing data, which means that for the first time in Canadian history we are able to analyze census infor

Public Accounts committee There are two sorts of data. There is the one that is not anecdotal scientific but based on research. When we look at research, and a number of academics are looking at it, especially qualitative research, we are encountering signs of visible minority refugees or immigrants facin

Public Accounts committee Telling the story of integration takes an intergenerational type of lens. Your question is valid. However, for instance, in terms of earnings, whether employment earnings or total income, we monitor and follow cohorts for decades. We have tax information for all cohorts since 198

Public Accounts committee From the very beginning, even before the first refugees arrived, the outcomes monitoring framework was set up.

Public Accounts committee I'll comment just very quickly on the second question.

Citizenship and Immigration committee Yes, as you know, we do follow and monitor different immigrant groups in terms of their retention rates, but in terms of the tools we use, it's too early for us to understand how many are staying or will stay. The initial studies and the research that we are getting from the regi

Citizenship and Immigration committee I do not have the data for all the provinces together. We can definitely provide these. I'll just give you an example. In New Brunswick, in 2016, we had 1,680 resettled refugees. These are rounded numbers. You also asked about the asylum claimants. In terms of refugee protected p

Citizenship and Immigration committee As you would anticipate, immigrants in different programs will behave differently. Overall, if you take all newcomers—methodologies differ from study to study—we look at five-year arrivals and we take the intended destination as a starting point. When we look at that overall, in
