  • ""The goal of this paper is to determine whether highly educated recent immigrants to Canada have fared as well economically as their counterparts entering the U.S., in light of the significant rise in the number of highly educated immigrants entering Canada. This study asks how economic outcomes at entry for the highly skilled have changed in the two countries over the last quarter-century (1980 to 2005). It further asks whether changes in the standard observable background characteristics of entering immigrants can account for the outcome trends documented in this study. Two economic outcome measures are used: the mean relative (to domestic-born) entry wages of highly educated new immigrants (i.e., the wage gap at entry); and the university wage premium, (defined as the difference between the wages of university-educated and high-schooleducated). Both unadjusted and adjusted (controlling for changes in observable characteristics across successive cohorts) estimates of these outcomes are produced."--Document."
