The novelty of this research is breaking down the sample into seven distinct immigrant groups based on admission class, along with second- and third-generation Canadians. Our results show that no immigrant group performs as well as those born in Canada on literacy and numeracy tests. However, young immigrants do better than adult immigrants. Similar results are seen for wages, which we use to measure success in the labor market. Among the immigrant subgroups, economic immigrants tend to have the highest test scores and hourly wages, while refugees have the lowest.
