Toward a prediction of third-world immigrants into Canada, 1973-1985

The author examines trends in migratory movements to Canada between 1949 and 1972 in an attempt to determine the statistical regularity of immigration from developing countries and to predict the probable number of third world immigrants to Canada for the period 1973-1985. The effects on migration of political factors and of variables associated with the area of origin are studied (SUMMARY IN FRE, SPA)
