Description: This technical reference guide is intended for users of the Education and Labour Market Longitudinal Platform (ELMLP) who are interested in Statistics Canada's geographic mobility indicators of undergraduate degree holders. The data come from the integration of administrative data from the Postsecondary Student Information System (PSIS) and the T1 Family File (T1FF), and this technical reference guide describes the methodology used to produce these indicators.

Description: The geographic mobility of postsecondary graduates—where they were before their studies, where they studied, and where they went to work after graduation—is of great interest to provinces and territories because education is under their jurisdiction and graduates are synonymous with skilled workers. This article takes advantage of new tables published by Statistics Canada on the geographic mobility of Canadian undergraduate degree (or bachelor's) graduates from 2012 to 2021. It sheds light on the following questions: Which provinces attract postsecondary students to their provinces? Are the provinces successful in retaining the bachelor's graduates they have trained and integrating them into their labour market? Which provinces have net gains in graduates? And most importantly, what are the trends over the years?

Description: This Juristat article expands on previous analysis of gender-related homicide in Canada by drawing on multiple data files to examine the characteristics of accused persons over a 14-year period (2009 to 2022).
