There is a large gap in annual income increases with more recent periods of immigration, for both sexes and for most countries of origin. * Immigrant annual earnings vary among countries of origin. Immigrants from Hong Kong and Guyana have the highest earnings among immigrants; immigrants from Pakistan and China have the lowest annual earnings among immigrants. * Immigrant men and women have higher unemployment rates than Canadian-born men and women. * Unemployment rates tend to increase with more recent periods of immigration; the participation rate remains stable across periods of immigration. * The unemployment and participation rates for immigrants vary by country of birth.
