1. Very-recent immigrants are individuals who have been landed immigrants to Canada for 5 years or less.
2. Recent immigrants are Individuals who have been landed immigrants to Canada from 5 to 10 years.
3. Established immigrants are individuals who have been landed immigrants for more than 10 years.
Notes: Data points are marginal effects derived from Appendix Table A.4. The typical partial effect is based on the means of the independent variables. It reflects the increase or decrease in the mean predicted probability that a prime-age (25 to 64) immigrant with a postsecondary education who completed his/her highest degree in a particular country will be out of labour market compared with a native-born Canadian of comparable observables when all other factors remain constant.
No bar indicates that the marginal effects are zero.
