- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202500500003Description: Understanding the housing use of immigrants and non-permanent residents (NPRs) is important for developing effective housing policies and urban planning strategies. Using 2021 Census data, this study estimates housing unit occupancy rates—defined as the number of dwellings per 1,000 people—for immigrants and NPRs.Release date: 2025-05-28
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202500200002Description: Canada has one of the highest shares of immigrants among developed countries. In 2021, immigrants made up nearly one-quarter (23.0%) of the population—the largest proportion among G7 nations. Therefore, understanding the impact of immigrant-owned businesses on the Canadian economy is essential. This article highlights key findings from two recent studies that explore the labour productivity and fiscal contributions of immigrant-owned firms.Release date: 2025-02-26
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202401200003Description: Understanding how international students use the housing market across different municipalities can inform policy and planning decisions regarding housing supply, urban infrastructure and services to better accommodate the needs of a diverse student population. This study uses the 2021 Census of Population to examine international students' participation in the rented and owned housing sectors, as well as the proportion of students living in shared accommodation within these markets.Release date: 2024-12-19
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202401000004Description: Amid growing concerns in Canada over housing affordability, questions have arisen about non-permanent residents’ experience in the Canadian rental market. This study uses data from the 2021 Census of Population to examine whether international students and temporary foreign workers face higher rental costs than the Canadian-born population (non-immigrants) and longer-term immigrants (those who were admitted more than five years preceding the census year). It also explores the factors contributing to disparities in rental expenses among these groups.Release date: 2024-10-23
- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400500001Description: With an increase in the number of international students and a greater need for affordable housing, questions have arisen about international students housing experiences. This article examines international students’ prevalence of living in unsuitable housing across municipalities enumerated in the 2021 Census of Population long-form questionnaire. The report also presents the rates of unsuitable housing for international students from different source countries and provides comparisons with Canadian-born students.Release date: 2024-05-22
- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2024002Description: Immigrant-owned businesses were more likely to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic than other businesses, as they were more concentrated in industries requiring in-person contact and were smaller in scale. To support businesses affected by the pandemic, the Government of Canada launched various COVID-19 liquidity support programs, including the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS), the Canada Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance (CECRA), the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy (CERS) and the Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA). These programs were designed to help affected businesses by partially covering their main expenses, such as wages, rent and property expenses.Release date: 2024-03-06
- Articles and reports: 82-003-X202100600001Description:
This study examines MHCs by immigrants and refugees-compared with those of Canadian-born respondents-while controlling for self-reported mental health and immigrant characteristics, using a population-based survey linked to immigrant landing information. This study, which is based on a linked database, allows for much richer insight into immigrant populations than most previous studies.

This study fills this gap by examining the self-reported mental health (SRMH) of immigrants by admission category and other immigration dimensions (e.g., source world region and duration since landing) and making comparisons with Canadian-born respondents to a population-based survey.
