    Immigrant redistribution in Canada primarily targets metropolitan areas like Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal. Existing immigrant populations significantly influence both retention and attraction, often more than economic factors alone.

    Area of Science:

    • Sociology
    • Demography
    • Urban Studies

    Background:

    • Reviews earlier research on regional and metropolitan redistribution of immigrant groups in Canada.
    • Establishes the context for analyzing internal migration patterns of immigrants.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and estimate a hierarchical model of migration for immigrant groups in Canada.
    • To analyze the factors influencing the internal redistribution of immigrants postarrival.

    Main Methods:

    • Development and estimation of a hierarchical migration model.
    • Analysis of immigrant redistribution patterns for the period 1981-1986.
    • Statistical modeling to assess the influence of various factors on migration.

    • Internal redistribution of immigrants predominantly occurs within metropolitan areas.
    • Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal are key destinations for immigrant redistribution.
    • The presence of established immigrant communities significantly impacts immigrant retention and attraction.

    Conclusions:

    • Immigrant redistribution in Canada is strongly concentrated in major metropolitan centers.
    • Social networks and existing immigrant distributions are critical drivers of migration decisions, often outweighing economic factors.
    • Understanding these patterns is crucial for urban planning and immigrant integration policies.
