7 Highlights: social and health outcomes of immigrants and refugees in Canada Social, physical and mental wel-being Sense of belonging of immigrants increases with additional time in Canada; Economic principal applicants reports slightly lower sense of community belonging compared to the Canadian born and other immigrant categories; Immigrants are generally less likely to have excellent or very good self-perceived health, compared to the Canadian-born; Refugees are less likely to report having excellent or very good mental health status compared to the Canadian born and other immigrants Immigrants are as likely as the Canadian-born to report mental Health conditions, but much less likely to seek professional help; The children of immigrants are more likely to report being treated unfairly because of their race, ethnicity, religion or language; Perceptions of society and self Immigrants attitudes towards society and people are more positive than the Canadian-born; A higher portion of recent immigrants feel challenged to contribute to society and improve themselves, compared to the Canadian born; 7
8 Highlights: social and health outcomes of immigrants and refugees in Canada Social support and connections Immigrants social support and connections slightly increase with more time spent in Canada; despite that, they remain lagged behind the Canadian-born who report significantly more social support and connections; Social, civic and political participation Immigrants generally participate as much as the Canadian-born in social and civic activities, although there are observed differences among immigrants of different admission categories and source countries; Immigrants are less likely to volunteer than the Canadian-born, but contribute about the same number of hours as the Canadian born; Spouses and dependents of economic class immigrants have rates of volunteering and organization membership comparable to the Canadian born; Immigrants political participation increased between the last two elections Established immigrants vote more than recent immigrants, but voting rates significantly vary across world regions of birth; Citizenship take up rates are high and increasing (85.8% in 2016 Census); 8
9 Highlights: social and health outcomes of immigrants and refugees in Canada Recent immigrants, unemployed immigrants and immigrants without officiallanguage knowledge experience relatively lower levels of social support and connections, social well-being, and participation in social activities; Immigrants expectations of post-landing experience matter in terms of their social outcomes: Immigrants positive attitudes towards society and people diminish with longer time in Canada; Longer time in Canada does not significantly improve life satisfaction; Recent immigrants positive views towards society do not increase with employment; 9
10 Knowledge gaps and forward plans Analysis Lots of data remain to be mined in depth and systematically Extension of the analysis by admission category Interdependency between social and economic well-being Differences in outcomes of settlement service clients vs non-clients Differences in outcomes of landed permanent residents vs those transitioned from temporary status (e.g. international students, international experience class, open work permit holders etc.) Integration outcomes of a specific cohort (e.g. Syrian refugees) Efficiency and effectiveness of settlement programming (e.g. language training) Citizenship negotiation process (tests, take-up, barriers etc.) Data development Settlement outcomes survey (clients and non-clients) Citizenship grants database linkage with social and economic dimensions Specific cohort flags in 2016 Census and in icare (e.g. Syrian refugees) Refugee sponsorship database

34 About Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) The CCHS is a cross-sectional survey that annually collects information related to health status, health care utilization, social capital (e.g. social activity, social support, etc.), other health determinants, and socialdemographic characteristics for immigrants and the Canada-born. The CCHS relies upon a large sample of respondents and is designed to provide reliable estimates at the health region level. It produced an annual microdata file with about 1000 variables for a sample of around 65,000 respondents each year starting from Our analysis uses the Public Use Microdata File (PUMF) combining two years of data in 2011 and In total, there are 17,574 immigrants in this combined sample of 124,929 respondents. The Social Provision Scale measures the level of social connections and support from others, groups as well as the community. The data is only available for Quebec, British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. The CCHS also developed 5 sub-scales for five main social functions including Attachment, Guidance, Social Integration, Reliable Alliance, and Reassurance of Worth. Reliable Alliance Scale: assurance that others can be counted on when needed. Guidance Scale: advice or information available. Social Integration Scale: a sense of being integrated into a group that shares similar interests, concerns or recreational activities. Attachment Scale: a measure for emotional closeness to family, friends, and others Reassurance of Worth Scale: a measure for recognition of one s competence. The rating system is based on the methodology developed by Cutrona and Russell (1987), and Caron (1996). The scales are based on the a list of 10 survey questions in the CCHS
