Book excerpt: "The 'brain drain,' a much-discussed issue in the late 1990s, has largely faded from public and academic discussions, perhaps largely because recent evidence indicates that the overall number of Canadians leaving the country in any given year is relatively low (on the order of one tenth of 1% of the population in any given year) and is not necessarily as concentrated at the top of the occupation scale or in certain sectors as previously conjectured. Using Statistics Canada's Longitudinal Administrative Database (LAD), constructed from individuals' tax records, this paper begins by reporting more up-to-date data on the rates of leaving, as well as of return. The main body of the paper then presents new evidence on one aspect of this dynamic that has not previously been studied: the effects on earnings of leaving the country and then returning."--Unedited text from document.

Book excerpt: Investigates the topic of interprovincial mobility by analyzing its determinants at the individual level. Data for the study come from the recently available Longitudinal Administrative Databank, a representative sample of Canadian tax filers. The analysis uses a panel logit model approach where the probability that a person moves from one year to the next is specified to be a function of various environmental factors (current province of residence, provincial unemployment rate, area size of residence), personal attributes (language, marital status, age, presence of children), some key labour market characteristics (earnings level, receipt of unemployment insurance and social assistance), and a series of year variables which capture any general shifts in the extent of interprovincial mobility over time. All non-student adults aged 20-54 are included in the analysis, while separate models are estimated for four different age groups for each sex, thereby facilitating the comparison of mobility patterns among these different groups.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis consists of three essays on inter-provincial labour mobility in Canada.In the first essay, we explore the concepts of provincial gross, net and share of net mobility rates across education and age groups using the Survey of Labor and Income Dynamics (SLID, 1993-2011) of Canada. Our results show that provincial mobility of young and more educated are more than their counterparts. The share of net mobility rates reveals that young and less educated individuals mostly have one-way interprovincial mobility. Moreover, inter-provincial migration using gravity model shows that the effects of border and population sizes of destination and original provinces have positive influences and distances have the negative influence on provincial migration. We also identify a positive correlation between provincial in- and out-migration in Canada. This shows that provinces that lose more people also seem to attract more people. Our analysis further illustrates that net provincial mobility has a stronger relationship with in-migration compared to out- migration.The second essay examines the effect of local market conditions (LMC) on provincial mobility based on Canadian Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) from 1993-2011. For measuring local market conditions at the provincial level, we consider two commonly used indices in the literature; one is based on employment growth (Bartik, 1991; Blanchard et al., 1992) and the other one is the unemployment rate. Our findings suggest that local market conditions of the original province rather than a destination province play a significant role in triggering inter-provincial migration. We find that less educated and young individuals are more likely to stay in response to increase in employment growth. However, in response to increase in the unemployment rate, less educated individuals are less likely, and young individuals are more likely to move out of the province of origin. To have a deeper look about the impact of the local market condition on provincial mobility we estimate five different frequencies of mobility. This suggests that shorter frequency of mobility provides more accurate picture how local market conditions affect provincial migration compared to census data. We also find that the effect of employment growth and the unemployment rate of the original province on provincial mobility, build up gradually. However, the effect of unemployment rates of the destination province on provincial migration declines over time.Finally, the third essay represents the characteristics and the mover-stayer wage gap of provincial movers. Each year a considerable number of people move across provinces of Canada. Some provinces are losing, and some provinces are gaining skilled workers. However, there are not many studies investigate "Who moves and Who Stays behind." By using Canadian longitudinal data set "Survey of Labor and Income Dynamics (SLID)" from 1993-2011, we find that individuals from both education and age groups prefer to stay in Alberta and British Columbia, and Quebec is far behind than Ontario in retaining above average workers. This study also examines pre-move and post-move wage difference of provincial movers and stayers in the same locality. Our results suggest that the mover-stayer wage gap varies across education and age groups and also depend on the employment status. In analyzing the wage pattern of mover-stayer wage gap, our study also reveals that wage differential between movers and stayers disappears after few years of the provincial move. In analyzing occupational mobility among provincial movers our findings demonstrate that provincial movers remain in the same occupation earn the most and provincial mobility pays, but occupational mobility does not.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining statistical analysis and ethnographic study, Harry Hiller uncovers two waves of in-migration to Alberta. His innovative approach begins with the individual migrant and analyzes the relocation experience from origin to destination. Through interviews with hundreds of migrants, Hiller shows that migration is complex and dynamic, shaped not just by what Alberta offers but also prompted by a process that begins in the region of origin which makes migration possible, and helps determine whether migrants stay or return home. By combining a social psychological approach with structural factors such as Alberta’s transition from a regional hinterland province to its emerging role the global system, discussions of gender, the internet, and folk culture, Second Promised Land provides a multi-dimensional and deeply human account of a contemporary Canadian phenomenon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender and Rural Migration: Realities, Conflict and Change explores the intersection of gender, migration, and rurality in 21st-century Western and non-Western contexts. In a world where heightened globalization is making borders increasingly porous, rural communities form part of the migration nexus. While rural out-migration is well-documented, the gendered dynamics of rural in-migration - including return rural migration and the connectivity of rural-urban/global-local spaces - are often overlooked. In this collection, well-grounded case studies involving diverse groups of people in rural communities in Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, Norway, the United States, and Uzbekistan are organized into three themes: contesting rurality and belonging, women’s empowerment and social relations, and sexualities and mobilities. As demonstrated in this anthology, rural areas are contested sites among queer youth, same-sex couples, working women, young mothers, migrant farm workers, temporary foreign workers, in-migrants, and return migrants. The rich expositions of various narratives and statistical data in multidisciplinary perspectives by emerging and established scholars claim gender and rurality as nodal points in contemporary migration discourse.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given Canada's vast geography and uneven distribution of economic activity, almost all Canadians have at one time or another faced the question of whether an interprovincial move would make them better off. Using a unique dataset based on income tax records, authors Kathleen Day and Stanley Winer examine the factors influencing the decision to migrate within Canada, paying special attention to the role of regional variation in the generosity of public policies including unemployment insurance, taxation, and public expenditure. the influence of extraordinary events such as the election of a separatist government in Quebec and the closure of the east coast cod fishery is also considered. They look at why we ought to be concerned about public policies that interfere with market-based incentives to move, provide a wealth of information on interregional differences in public policies and market conditions, and examine what other researchers have discovered about fiscally induced migration, culminating in a discussion of the likely impact of various policy changes on migration and provincial unemployment rates. the authors' assessment of the lessons to be learned from their own and past research on policy-induced migration in Canada will be of interest to students of migration and policy makers alike.

Book excerpt: This paper presents findings of an empirical investigation into the effects of interprovincial migration on indiviuals' earnings, based on the newly available Longitudinal Administrative Database. The main results are based on a difference model which estimates the effects of mobility on earnings which implicitly controls for initial earnings levels & other fixed effects, as well as other influences captured by the regressors included in the models. Variations in those effects by age, sex, and province of origin are noted. Pre- and post-move earnings profiles are also analyzed, offering support for the validity of the difference model approach and indicating the speed at which movers are integrated into local labour markets after their moves. Implications of the results are discussed and possible directions for future research are suggested.
