abstract: 'The wage opportunities afforded different racial groups vary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
considerably. We present a new analysis of wage differentials for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
different visible minority groups in Canada which also accounts for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
immigration background, using the first wave of the Survey of Labour and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Income Dynamics.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With the exception of Black men, we find no statistically significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wage disadvantage for visible minorities who are native born. It is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
primarily among immigrants that wage differentials for visible minority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
membership exist. Our results suggest that policies to achieve a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
colour-blind Canadian labour market may have to focus more on immigrant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assistance and less on traditional employment equity legislation.'
