- W2304549562 abstract "Immigration policy in Canada has undergone several significant changes over the past 25 years. Domestic economic conditions provided a major impetus to these changes. The present study is an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of Canadian immigration policy over this period by assessing certain impacts on the native-born population. The study is conducted in two steps using microdata from the 1981 Canadian Population Census. First, the life-cycle theory of consumption, savings and investment has been used to hypothesize an immigrant's impact on the native-born population through the public treasury. This theory implies a positive net impact from the immigrant population since immigrants are generally younger at the time of their arrival and spend their productive lives in Canada. Major tax contributions and consumption of public services in Canada have been estimated to obtain a balance sheet of transfers between immigrants and original residents. Second, the impact of various policy-prone characteristics such as education, labour market experience, ethnicity, gender, etc. are also analysed. For this purpose the impact on earnings is analysed via a human capital framework. Earnings models are estimated for immigrants and the native-born population using Ordinary Least Squares. The unit of analysis is the household. Most of the implications derived from the theory of life-cycle behaviour are confirmed. When tax contributions and the consumption of all major public services are analysed, it is found that the stock of post-1955 immigrants circa 1981 had a positive impact on the standard of living of the native-born population. The second part of the analysis reveals that because of the selection criteria used for admission, immigrants in general were able to improve their economic performance over their lifetime in Canada. European immigrants perform better than Canadian born residents. Immigrants from Asia, Africa and Central America require ten to fifteen years to emulate the economic performance of the Canadian born stock. However, overall, their economic performance is similar to that of the native born. The marginal impact of the length of stay in Canada on earnings is higher for this latter group of immig&ants. In sum, given the present analysis, it may be. concluded that immigration policy in Canada has been successful in obtaining a positive impact from immigration." @default.
