Dynamics of Immigrants' Health in Canada: Evidence from the National
Population Health Survey
1994/95 to 2002/03
Recent immigrants from non-European countries were twice as likely as
the
Canadian-born to report deterioration in their health over an eight
year
period, according to a new study using longitudinal data.
When immigrants arrive in Canada, they are generally in better health
than
the Canadian-born population. An earlier study found that 97% of new
immigrants rated their health as good, very good or excellent six
months
after their arrival, compared with 88% for the general population.
However,
as time passes, this so-called "healthy immigrant effect" tends to
diminish
as their health status converges with that of the general
population...
