Abstract: Immigration, a broad term describing the movement of people between nations (Solinger, Van Olffen, and Roe 2008), has been fuelled by globalization and deepened neo-liberal immigration and labour policies, with increasing migrant precarity and benefits to Western nations (Guo 2010, 2016; Tungohan 2018). Migration denotes a significant life transition associated with multiple and complex impacts on individuals, families, and communities. Well-documented are the resettlement challenges, often grounded in structural discrimination, that create barriers to employ-ability, credential accreditation, and affordable housing (Alcaraz et al. 2021; Chen, Smith, and Mustard 2010; Schellenberg and Maheux 2007).While migration ...

Abstract: This article explores the experiences of Central American women living in Canada and how they negotiate complex gender, racialization, and settlement processes within the context of migration. Due to the aggregation of Central Americans under 'Latin American' in the Canadian census and greater societal dialogue, the specific experiences of Central Americans have been largely underexplored. Central American migration to Canada is worthy of focus on, given the special measures undertaken in the 1980s during a period of internal conflicts in the region, which led to the mass migration of Salvadorans and Guatemalans, and, to a lesser degree, Hondurans and Nicaraguans. The circumstances of violence and displacement ... Read More

Abstract: With the exception of its Indigenous population, Canada has been shaped and defined by immigration (Hawkins 1988; Kelley and Trebilcock 2010; Kilbride 2014). With the country's declining fertility rates and an aging population (Newbold 2021), immigration has become increasingly important in terms of population, labour force, ethnic diversity, and economic growth. The approximately 7.5 million foreign-born people currently living in Canada represent 21.9% of its total population, the highest proportion among G8 countries (Statistics Canada 2016a). This number is expected to reach 12.3 million by 2036 based on the federal government's planned increases in annual immigration.In the mid-1960s, Canadian federal ... Read More

Abstract: Research on immigration and the integration process in Canada, and more specifically in Quebec, has often highlighted the challenges and difficulties encountered by immigrants, without focusing on their actions, strategies, or the resources they invest in this process. The present article fills this gap by highlighting the immigrants' agentivity and their ability to face the challenges of integration. Its general objective is to show how different support roles are played by the social network in the socio-professional integration of immigrants settled in Quebec, contrary to the observations made in other literature (Arcand et al. 2009). Based on Tardy's (1985) theoretical framework and a qualitative methodology ... Read More

Abstract: In a 2006 report dedicated to diversity leadership in higher education published by the Association for the Study of Higher Education, Adalberto Aguirre and Rubén O. Martinez discussed two equally important aspects of the leadership paradigm needed to effectively advance equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in higher education and, particularly, to promote an antiracist institution: "diverse leadership comprising racial and ethnic diversity and diversity leadership as a rubric for addressing diversity" (Aguirre and Martinez 2006, 82). The former refers to the need to increase the compositional diversity of leadership teams in relation to racial and ethnic identity, and the latter refers to the need to develop the ... Read More

Abstract: We welcome this symposium devoted to our book, Containing Diversity: Canada and the Politics of Immigration in the 21st Century. We are pleased to have the opportunity to discuss our ideas and engage in a broader conversation with scholars working in the multidisciplinary Canadian ethnic studies tradition. By way of beginning this broader conversation, we will highlight why we wrote the book Containing Diversity, what we mean by "containing diversity," as a process, as well as how our volume engages this theme across its different chapters.As with almost all books, completing this monograph took longer than expected in large part because in March of 2020, we were suddenly confronted by the unanticipated question of ...

Abstract: I used to dread the prospect of reviewing a book based on the author's doctoral thesis. My trepidation was well-founded. Too often the publication reflected the plodding formalities of a PhD thesis, the content often lacked intellectual maturity, and its polysyllabic (!) wordiness sought to impress rather than communicate. Fortunately for me and the reading public, Daniel Meister's The Racial Mosaic has proven a refreshing exception to this rule. The book is a model of scholarly insight and clarity as it takes the reader into a hitherto under-researched slice of Canadian history. He accomplishes this challenge by refracting a prehistory of multiculturalism through the lives and lens of three public intellectuals: ... Read More
