• Resumen

  • Canadian cities are active competitors in the process of recruiting immigrants to help them increase diversity, improve their economies, and stimulate population growth. This study of Halifax, a small city in eastern Canada, suggests that some features which make the city-region attractive for inter-provincial migrants � such as the easy pace of life, perceptions of homogeneity, and tight social networks � affect the ability of international migrants to integrate in the community.
