1 and Temporary Resident Children in British Columbia January 2011 During the five-year period from 2005 to 2009, on average, approximately 40,000 immigrants arrived in B.C. annually and approximately 7,900 were children. Most children arrived as dependents under the Economic immigration class. children came to B.C. as International Students, Humanitarian Cases and Temporary Residents. Between 2005 and 2009, approximately 82,000 temporary residents arrived annually in B.C. and approximately 5,900 were children. A large proportion of temporary resident children arrived as International Students. Whether children come to Canada as dependants of immigrants or come to study, they may face challenges in integrating into Canadian society. For example, language could be a barrier for them to integrate into society. Fewer immigrant child arrivals to B.C. have official language ability than the national average. This report focuses on immigrant child arrivals to B.C. from 2005 to 2009 defined as children age 0 to 14 years old, including their share of total immigrant arrivals, immigration class, source countries, official language ability and mother tongue. The report also profiles the temporary resident children in B.C. and the trends over the past decade. New Child Arrivals to B.C. B.C. welcomes approximately 40,000 new immigrants each year, and approximately one in five are children, comparable with the national share. Between the years 2005 and 2009, B.C. became a new home to 39,443 immigrants between the ages of 0 and 14 years old. That is an average of 7,889 immigrant children arriving each year. In 2009, 7,296 immigrant children arrived in B.C., a decrease of 20.8% from Chart 1: Child Arrivals to B.C.

2 2 data in this report comes from two different sources, the 2006 Census and Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). Temporary resident data in this report come from CIC. Temporary resident data generally refer to stock numbers unless otherwise indicated. For definition of stock, see Glossary of Terms. Data from CIC was extracted in June The data may differ slightly from the official statistics as published by CIC at It is important to note that the analyses presented in this fact sheet are descriptive in nature. The results have no controls for the multiple factors that influence the statistics. Source Countries The top three source countries of new immigrant child arrivals to B.C. from 2005 to 2009 were Mainland China (23.3%), the Philippines (12.7%), and South Korea (8.1%) which accounted for 44.1% (17,405 out of 39,443) of the immigrant child arrivals. Almost two thirds of immigrant child arrivals were from the Asia Pacific region which is comparable to the immigrant youth and adult shares to B.C. The top three source countries of immigrant youth and adults to B.C. were Mainland China, India and the Philippines. Chart 3: Top Five Source Countries of Child Arrivals to B.C. ( ) During the five years from 2005 to 2009, most immigrant child arrivals to B.C. were Economic class arrivals (80.0%). Within the Economic class arrivals, a large proportion of immigrant child arrivals were dependents of the principal applicants in the Federal Skilled Worker class (66.0%), followed by the Business class (19.9%), Provincial Nominee class (8.8%) and Live-in Caregiver Program class (5.2%). Twenty percent of child immigrants arrived in the Non- Economic class to B.C. from 2005 to Within the Non- Economic class, 62.3% of child immigrant arrivals were in the Family class, followed by the Refugee class (31.5%), and the class (6.2%).

There are eight broad immigration classes, which can be grouped down into two major classes, Economic class and Non-Economic class. Economic class immigrants are selected for their skills and ability to contribute to Canada s economy. This class of immigrants includes members of the Federal Skilled Worker, Business, Provincial Nominee, Live-in Caregiver, and Canadian Experience classes. Economic class immigrants include the principal applicant and their dependants (i.e. spouses and dependent children). Non-Economic class immigrants are members of the Family Class, Refugee Class, and s.

This was lower than the national share (38.3%). B.C., at 31.6%, had the fourth lowest share of immigrant children with official language ability across the provinces. Provinces with lower proportions were Saskatchewan (30.8%), Manitoba (21.4%) and Prince Edward Island (20.3%). Excluding the Territories, Nova Scotia (48.1%) and New Brunswick (43.2%) had the highest shares of immigrant child arrivals with official language ability. Ontario, Quebec, Alberta and Newfoundland had national shares just above or below the national average of 38.3%. immigrant children were Chinese, English and Arabic, followed by Tagalog as a close fourth.

Only Ontario had a higher proportion of the immigrant child population (8.2%). The proportion was much higher in Metro Vancouver where 12.7% of children were immigrants
4 4 and Greater Toronto had the highest proportion (13.7%). Of the 52,620 immigrant children in B.C. in 2006, 31,720, or 60.3%, immigrated to Canada between 2001 and 2006, 32.4% immigrated to Canada between 1996 and 2000 and 7.3% immigrated to Canada before s living in B.C. are concentrated in Metro Vancouver, as are immigrant children.

The number of International Student children in B.C. has doubled in the ten years since 2000 from 3,117 to 6,304 in International Student children came from over 80 countries but two-thirds were from South Korea. The top five source countries were South Korea (63.5%), United Kingdom (4.8%), Taiwan (3.4%), Mexico (3.2%), and the United States (2.5%). With the implementation of Canada s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, international students taking a short-term course or program (e.g. English language course) of six months or less no longer require a study permit. For this reason, the reported number of international students understates the total number engaged in studies.
