Full textImmigrants are a growing part of the population in western countries. In this sense, it is more relevant to study their conditions and their integrations. To do so, in Canada, the federal government has developed two datasets: Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Canada (LSIC) and the Longitudinal Immigration Database (IMDB). In immigrant panels the non-random attrition is likely higher than in native one. Thus, it is relevant to correct this bias. In this paper, we test two correction techniques. We compare statistical weighting and a three equations unweighted correction. In those two cases, we are correcting for participation in the labor market, but only the unweighted procedure corrects for the participation in the panel. We found that the unweighted has a better correction on the bias on the labor market participation, but no estimator has correctly corrected the wage rates.

Full textCette recherche a pour but de définir et de décrire les facteurs linguistiques et sociolinguistiques de l’intégration des immigrants dans le contexte multilingue qu’est Montréal. Elle se fonde sur un corpus d’entretiens effectués avec des immigrants, suivant les cours de francisation gouvernementaux. Notre travail repose principalement sur la notion – à la fois politique et sociolinguistique – d’intégration linguistique. Nous étudions les politiques de gestion de l’immigration et de la pluralité linguistique qui influencent l’intégration des immigrants dans une société d’installation culturellement diversifiée et francophone. Notre démarche est à la fois macrosociolinguistique et microsociolinguistique, aussi bien dans la problématique que dans la méthodologie appliquée. Nous cherchons à apprécier l’impact des mesures de politique linguistique sur la préservation du français au Québec en nous intéressant aux perceptions des immigrants concernant les fonctions sociales des langues à Montréal. La francisation étant présentée comme la mesure politique la plus significative, nous nous intéressons au contenu des cours, sur le plan linguistique et culturel. Nous déterminons le niveau de compétence que les immigrants-apprenants atteignent à la fin de leur formation à l’aide d’une grille originale d’observables énonciatifs, structurels et normatifs. Après avoir évalué le degré d’autonomie linguistique des sujets, nous décrivons leur mobilité sociale en étudiant la fréquence et le type d’interactions dans lesquelles les immigrants ont l’occasion d’utiliser les différentes langues de leur répertoire langagier, en vue de déterminer leur intégration sociale. A partir de ces données, nous mettons en évidence l’influence du degré de maîtrise linguistique sur le sentiment d’intégration. Les résultats montrent que le français jouit d’une vitalité linguistique importante. De par ses fonctions véhiculaires et sociales, le français est généralement la langue de communication première dans toutes les sphères de la vie sociale à Montréal. De ce fait, la capacité de communiquer, grâce à l’appropriation de la variété standard du français, est un facteur linguistique de l’intégration. Or, à la fin de la formation en français, les immigrants ont des compétences linguistiques et sociolinguistiques qui leur permettent seulement une mobilité linguistique et sociale limitées. Ce facteur linguistique doit être obligatoirement accompagné d’autres éléments intégrateurs qui constituent les étapes suivantes du processus d’intégration.
Linguistic and Sociolinguistic Factors of Integration within a Multilingual Context : the case of immigrants in Montreal The purpose of this study is to define and describe the linguistic and sociolinguistic factors of integration of immigrants within the multilingual context of Montreal. Based on a corpus of interviews (discussions, conversations) with immigrants enrolled in government-sponsored French language training programs, our work focuses mainly on linguistic integration, understood here as both a political and sociolinguistic notion. We examine the policies of immigration management and linguistic plurality which influence the assimilation of immigrants into a francophone and culturally diversified society. Our approach to the research subject and the methodology applied to it is both macro-sociolinguistic and micro-sociolinguistic. We attempt to determine the impact of linguistic policy measures on preserving the use of the French language. To do this, we study how immigrants perceive the social functions of languages in Montreal. Since francization is presented as the most significant political measure, we analyze training course content, on a cultural and linguistic level. In order to determine the level of skill obtained by the immigrants at the end of their training program, we use an original scale measuring observable cognitive, structural and normative items. After assessing immigrants’ degree of linguistic autonomy, we describe their social mobility to see how well they are actually assimilated into the francophone living environment. We analyze the type and frequency of the interactions in which immigrant are called upon to use the different languages making up their language repertoires. This data allows us to show how immigrants’ command of the French language affects their feeling with regard to social integration. Our results demonstrate that the linguistic vitality of the french-speaking community in Montreal is increasing. Indeed, French is the primary language of communication in all aspects of social life. The ability to communicate easily in standard French is, therefore, a linguistic factor contributing to successful social and cultural integration. However, at the completion of their French language training program, immigrants’ linguistic and sociolinguistic skills allow them only limited linguistic and social mobility. This linguistic facet of cultural integration must necessarily be accompanied by other means to facilitate and consolidate the process of integration.

Full textOur objective is to examine the role played by immigrant cultural associations in the integration of their members, with an association of Togolese migrants in Canada (CTC) as our case study. Our approach shows that Togolese migrants are particularly influenced by cultural associations in their social and economic integration, both on arrival and later, during the job search process. They are influenced by the CTC and other associations that share their cultural referents. All of our respondents acknowledge that they need help in their integration process. Our analysis allowed us to understand that if the CTC facilitates the social and economic integration of its members in Quebec, it does so by offering them a culturally familiar environment that allows them to affirm their identity in Quebec. The meetings organized by the CTC allow members to create and reinforce links of solidarity that have a positive influence on their integration.

Full textThe subject matter of the present research is the analysis of conditions in which immigrant youth develop their cross cultural competences in school milieu in Sherbrooke.Several questions pertaining to changes taking place in Quebec society and the particular needs of Quebec’s educational system, in which the target population evolves, are outlined. Nationally, and particularly on the institutional level, the emergence of complex intercultural trajectories is increasingly taking center-stage. Such experiences represent dynamic evolving phenomena that provoke various feelings, specific behavior patterns, emotional disorders and cultural shocks. They are more clearly identifiable in certain regions where the number of newly arrived immigrants continuously grows. And the immigration in Sherbrooke is in constant evolution. Academic professionals are not sufficiently skilled to adequately perform in this kind of situations. They deplore their lack of knowledge and resources in this area, given that immigration to small towns on this scale is a relatively new phenomenon in Canada.Furthermore, this new phenomenon remains largely unexplored in the scientific domain. This subject is only partially paid attention to and is poorly adapted to the specific realities of immigrant youth being brought up in such regions.The conceptual field and frame of reference appear to have to be entirely reconstructed. To do so, it is necessary to analyze the conditions in which immigrant youth develop their cross-cultural competencies as it would allow us to understand the process of how they are acquired.Such subtle analysis will provide for carrying out tools and techniques to better equip academic professionals with knowledge and skills to help them face their new school realities and act in an appropriate and efficient manner.To address this need, we deployed an analysis pattern, which allowed us to study the evolution of cross-cultural competences by considering positive and negative factors for their development. These factors have been classified in an ecosystem, going from micro-system to macro-system.In the present study four types of respondents were interrogated: Quebecois youth, immigrant youth and their parents and teachers working in multicultural classes. These four respondents’ types were necessary to obtain a comprehensive view of the immigrant situation and their integration. We used focus groups, projective imagination test and face to face interviews.The results of the global analysis have shown that there are several crucial factors which were classified into the ecosystem. The main identified factors are: the degree of self-motivation, self esteem and how the school image is perceived (microsystem), parental strategies (mesosystem), teachers’ academic background and their tutorial approach, as well as policies around “welcome classes” structure (macrosystem). Moreover, we noticed that immigrant youth tend to faster adopt and integrate the culture of the Quebec society as well as merge with the new school community.The present research aimed to study the concepts of cross-cultural competencies has been enriched by the multidisciplinary approach we have applied throughout our analysis (psychology, pedagogy, sociology and anthropology)

Full textAu regard de diverses politiques canadiennes et québécoises visant à tirer profit de l’immigration, la présente recherche s’intéresse à de jeunes migrants adultes d’origine étrangère ayant comme projet celui de suivre une formation collégiale technique dans une région éloignée de la métropole québécoise. La prémisse de départ veut qu’au-delà des forces et contraintes extérieures, le parcours de chaque individu soit essentiellement unique et singulier. Cette étude cherche ainsi à saisir les logiques et processus sous-jacents à cette forme de mobilité aussi relative et évolutive que la réalité de notre ère globalisée l’impose, et ce, par l’appréhension du vécu des personnes impliquées. Grâce à la conduite d’entretiens semi-directifs auprès d’étudiants d’origine étrangère de l’Institut maritime du Québec à Rimouski, ce mémoire pose un regard sur leur parcours migratoire et l’expérience transculturelle vécue en région en traversant divers thèmes tels que les motivations à migrer et à choisir tel ou tel lieu de formation et de vie, les chocs culturels, la création de liens, le sentiment d’intégration, l’expérience académique, les stratégies d’adaptation et de résilience, les effets de la migration sur les individus, l’enjeu de l’appartenance, la vision de la localité d’accueil et les revirements de projets. Cette étude de cas permettra ainsi de soulever des pistes de réflexion concernant la réalité des étudiants en situation de mobilité et de questionner l’adéquation entre les logiques politiques et celles des individus.
With recent Canadian and Quebec policies aiming to capitalize on immigration, the present research targets migrant students enrolled in a regional college located in the Province of Québec. The basic premise of this paper is that beyond external forces and constraints, each individual has a unique and singular migratory experience. Through the analysis of these personal experiences, the following research aims to better understand the underlying processes of this relative and evolutionary migration movement brought about by globalization. Young foreign-born adults registered in a technical program at the Institut maritime du Québec in Rimouski were interviewed regarding their mobility and cross-cultural experiences through different themes such as : migration motivations, factors relating to choice of destination, culture shocks, relationships, academic experience, coping strategies, effects of migration, sense of integration and belonging, perception of the host community and projects evolution. The results of this case study highlight important avenues of reflection on the experience of migrant students in regional areas and question the concordance between governmental strategies and individual logic and projects.

Full textThis work concerns the migratory and identical processes of the Korean population installed in France or in Quebec. Its first purpose is to understand the influence of the socio-cultural context on the way that the immigrants adapt themselves and become integrated into the host countries whose models of integration differ. Considering that the language establishes a main element in the process of adaptation as well as in the identical strategies, the linguistic dynamics of the immigrant families was analyzed with a particular attention. 17 Korean families consisted of the father, the mother and their 11-15-year-old child were met in France or in Quebec, through essentially the semi-structured interview and the sociolinguistic questionnaire. The results of our search reveal that the French republican model promotes the linguistic and cultural integration of the Korean immigrants while the Quebec’s intercultural model promotes the socio-professional, civic and community integration. The second-generation immigrants integrate in a spontaneous way the culture and the language of the host country of their parents with the schooling as well as those of the origin into the interfamily context. Our qualitative analyses show that the adaptive and identical processes of the Korean immigrants develop in narrow relation with the socio-cultural context but also with a work of symbolization of the interculturality on the personal and group plan

Full textMy PhD dissertation (Sciences Po Paris & Université Saint-Louis) considers the dilemma generated by immigration and diversity for political elites in two culturally and linguistic distinct sub-national communities: Flanders (Belgium) and Quebec (Canada). For such communities, immigration represents both opportunities and challenges. Immigration might increase the relative demographic strength of the sub-national community yet, it might also weaken its cultural or linguistic cohesion. Focusing on the 1999-2014 timeframe and using discursive institutionalism, I ask how subnational elites respond to this dilemma. Using discourse analysis, I identify the position of members of regional parliaments and their rhetoric on four dimensions of immigrant integration (institutional, demographic, linguistic, and cultural). Contrary to other researches that have focused only on sub-nationalist and regionalist party positions, my focus on political discourse allows me to show how ideas circulate and evolve through legislatures. My results run contrary to some expectations from immigration studies and federalism theory. I show that key arguments are shared between political elites when it comes to the linguistic, demographic and cultural dimensions of immigrant integration. Nevertheless and independently from the conceptions of integration put forward, I show that clear divergences remain when it comes to federal-subnational institutional arrangements for immigrant integration

Full textThis study explores and describes the lived experience and the needs relating to the socioeconomic integration of the six elderly immigrants of African origin (55 years old and over) living in Manitoba since 5 to 10 years. The subjective well-being as measured by the immigrants’ perception of the quality of life, satisfaction with life and emotional state, served as a general indicator of the socioeconomic integration. The litterature has demontrated that the eldely immigrants are experiencing particular problems during their socioeconomic integration.It also reported significant disproportion between the needs of the eldrly immigrants and the services they receive. Using a combination of the theory of socioeconomic inclusion and the theoretical approach of the social determinants of health as the framework, this study analyzes how the inadequate socioeconomic integration and the state’s pension policies impose this category of immigrants to live in poverty, that affects their quality of life. Finally to highlight the specific features of the needs of the africans immigrants seniors, we identified their experience, their concerns, their expectations and their level of satisfaction in relation to socioeconomic integration services that are available to them. The findings of this study indicate that these immigrants are powerless and are oppressed in almost every interaction that they have within the public sphere, the labour market and the private sphere such as living conditions. These results also show that the situation of the socioeconomic status is reflected and influence on the other determinants of health. Therefore, their poverty is far beyond their personal control. It is strongly associated with social structure injustice based on class, race, immigrant status, age, and state policies. Key words: socioeconomic integration, quality of life, socioeconomic status, lifestyle, elderly immigrant, subjective well-being, immigrants’ poverty.

Full textLa présente recherche est née de la volonté de comprendre si les lois sur l’immigration par le parrainage affectent ou non les relations entre les hommes et les femmes qui choisissent d’immigrer au Canada par cette filière. À première vue cette loi, qui facilite le regroupement familial pour des résidents permanents ou des citoyens, pourrait paraître positive, pour les femmes notamment. Les récits des dix femmes qui ont participé à ma recherche montrent qu’au contraire, la situation est extrêmement complexe et mène parfois à des formes variées de violence, en même temps qu’elle contribue à créer des relations asymétriques et des inégalités au sein des couples. Les entrevues semi-dirigées auprès de ces immigrantes parrainées habitant la Ville de Québec montrent clairement que ce processus d’immigration a ses particularités et que les effets sur leur vie ne sont pas que positifs.
This research stemmed from the will to understand whether sponsorship immigration laws had an impact on relationships between men and women who chose to immigrate through this channel. At first glance, this law facilitating family reunification for permanent residents or citizens can seem positive, especially for women. The accounts of the ten women who took part in my research demonstrate that on the contrary, the situation is extremely complex and sometimes leads to diverse forms of violence. It also contributes to the creation of asymmetric relationships and inequalities among couples. The semi-directed interviews conducted with sponsored immigrant women living in Québec City clearly show that this immigration procedure has its own particularities, and that its effects on the subjects’ lives are not just positive.

Full textNearly one out of five Canadians was born abroad. Immigration levels keep growing and the ways in which these newcomers integrate into Canada will greatly affect the future of the country. In studies of integration, particular attention should be paid to young people of first and second generations, as they represent the intergenerational link between their families, cultural communities and native Canadians. This thesis focuses on the covariates of the matrimonial behaviours of different generations of immigrant men and women from different origin regions, compared to those of the local population, and examine the possible effects of cultural communities. Using 2001 census data, the analysis distinguishes between Quebec and the rest of Canada, and focuses on the probability of living in union by age and, of those in union, the probability that the union be marital versus common-law. Results show that the behaviors of immigrants of mixed unions (with one Canadian-born parent) are much more similar to those of local population, than those with both parents born abroad. Moreover, migrants of different geographic regions of origin display markedly different behaviors and different patterns of social integration across the generations, with some showing no evidence of a convergence to local norms. Finally, the effects of size and presence of a cultural community varies across the different models.

Full textThis study examines the integration trajectories of Iranian immigrants working as taxi drivers in Montreal, Canada. Participants in this study were still working as taxi drivers after five, ten and fifteen years or more after their arrival, although some had a university degree. Thus, the conclusions of this study differ from the results of other studies in the degree of success immigrants achieve in terms of professional insertion in the medium to long term. This research emerged from a review of studies which focused on issues related to the integration of immigrants, specifically in Canada and Quebec. This paper presents broader results by recording, reporting, and investigating participant expectations and motivations prior to departure, and their experiences and motivations after their arrival in the country of reception. Using a qualitative methodology, data was collected on the life-experiences and the professional trajectories of forty immigrants working as drivers at a Montreal taxi company. The majority of the subjects were Iranian, which removed potential difficulties in the research process, and allowed the researcher to explore specific issues in greater depth. The first part of this study aims to familiarize the reader with an overview of the history of immigration in Canada, and more specifically the history of Iranian immigration patterns in Canada, and to present the conceptual framework and methodological approach used in this research. The second part documents the participants’ stories and discusses the findings. After being denied access to subsidized post-secondary education, and after trying a number of low-level jobs, participants identified taxi driving as most advantageous in terms of income and working conditions. The discussion of the results reveals a number of key phenomena that directly contribute to the low success rate of professional integration of Iranian immigrants into the Quebec economy. These phenomena include an initial lack of access to subsidized, post-secondary education for asylum seekers prior to the granting of permanent status in Canada; the inadequate level of French language preparation through government funded courses; the inadequacy of public job-seeking agencies to advertise anything other than low-level jobs; subtle post 9/11 discrimination in the employment market, and the inability of the relatively new Iranian community in Canada to provide social and professional support and resources to new immigrants as they seek appropriate professional employment. A number of participants formed business partnerships with other Iranian immigrants. However, these partnerships were between partners who barely knew each other, and in every case, a lack of technical expertise and business know-how led to the collapse of the businesses. Frustration with their ongoing low level of professional integration in Quebec led a number of participants to leave Quebec in search of greater professional satisfaction. These decisions were often made without considering the realities of the move and with little or no forethought to integrating into another new environment. As a result, all of the participants who left Quebec have since returned. While other studies have been critical of the cultural and work behaviours of Iranian immigrants, this study has found that these same characteristics, when observed within the parameters of a well managed work environment, have had a positive impact on the performance and functioning of the Montreal taxi company. While it remained the wish of the majority of the participants in this study to find more satisfying, professional employment, in the final analysis, the findings of this study suggest that under the current conditions, the majority of these participants will continue to drive taxis.
