In an interesting development, a new research undertaken recently confirms that new migrants into Canada are likely to be in good health and meet death on a less frequent basis as compared to those who are born in the country. However, the said research also reveals that this positive effect usually comes to an end if the involved people have lived within the borders of the nation for long.
The author of the study compared the death rates of those residents of the nation, who were born inside and outside the country, by leafing through the census data, apart from the certificates of death gathered between the years of 1991 and 2001. His study reveals that on an average 1,006 men and 610 women meet death per annum, out of every 100,000 persons. When we weigh this figure against those for adults born in the country-- 1,305 for men and 731 for women - we find that this figure is remarkably lesser.
Though the author of the said report was quoted as saying that the focal point of the study remains offering the data, and not reaching any conclusions whatsoever, he was also quoted as saying that a chunk of the health gap between the immigrants and those citizens, who are Canada-born, may be made clear by the policy involving immigration itself.
Making a distinction of sorts between the new and comparatively older migrants, the study also reveals that the newer entrants usually are in a better health as compared to those migrants who have been staying in the country for long.
