Immigrant Poverty Worse

The Statistics Canada low-income cut-offs for the Toronto area in 2000 were $18513 for a family of two and $29163 for a family of four.

New immigrants are more than twice as likely to be poor as the Canadian-born, a gap that has been widening for two decades. Poverty rate among immgrants who had arrived within the previous 5 years stood at 36% in 2000, up from 24.6% two decades earlier. The increase in the immigrants low-income rate held true for all education levels, age group, family types and whether or not immigrants spoke one of Canada's official languages.

While poverty among immigrants rose, among Canadian-born it fell from 17.2% in 1980 to 14.3% in 2000.

Only among immigrants who had been in Canada for more than 20 years did the poverty rate closely resemble that of the Canadian-born.

Income gap is highest for those with the most education.

Most of the increase in poverty in Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal was concentrated among immigrants.
