abstract: 'Recent research points to a growing gap between immigrant and
|
||||
|
||||
native-born outcomes in the Canadian labour market at the same time as
|
||||
|
||||
selection processes emphasize recruiting highly educated newcomers.
|
||||
|
||||
Drawing on interviews with well-educated men and women who migrated from
|
||||
|
||||
countries in sub-Saharan Africa, this paper explores the gendered
|
||||
|
||||
processes that produce weak economic integration in Canada.
|
||||
|
||||
Three-quarters of research participants experienced downward
|
||||
|
||||
occupational mobility, with the majority employed in low-skilled,
|
||||
|
||||
low-wage, insecure forms of survival employment. In a gendered labour
|
||||
|
||||
market, where common demands for Canadian experience, Canadian
|
||||
|
||||
credentials and Canadian accents were uneven across different sectors of
|
||||
|
||||
the labour market, women faced particular difficulties finding survival
|
||||
|
||||
employment; in the long run, however, womens greater investment in
|
||||
|
||||
additional post-secondary education within Canada placed them in a
|
||||
|
||||
somewhat better position than men. The policy implications of this study
|
||||
|
||||
are fourfold: first, we raise questions about the efficacy of Canadian
|
||||
|
||||
immigration policies that prioritize the recruitment of well-educated
|
||||
|
||||
immigrants without addressing the multiple barriers that result in
|
||||
|
||||
deskillling; second, we question government policies and settlement
|
||||
|
||||
practices that undermine more equitable economic integration of
|
||||
|
||||
immigrants; third, we address the importance of tackling the everyday
|
||||
|
||||
racism that immigrants experience in the Canadian labour market; and
|
||||
|
||||
finally, we suggest the need to re-think narrowly defined notions of
|
||||
|
||||
economic integration in light of the gendered nature of contemporary
|
||||
|
||||
labour markets, and immigrants own definitions of what constitutes
|
||||
|
||||
meaningful integration.'
