Key findings
Calgary is becoming more ethno-culturally diverse as a result of growing immigration, and that Calgary’s northeast and northwest are likely the most culturally diverse quadrants of the city as manifested in the changing demographics and the ethnic composition of recent immigrants to the communities.
In the process of facilitating immigrant settlement and integration, the City of Calgary has worked closely with community partners in developing a hub model of community-based integration programs that engage newcomers and established community members in working together to eliminate barriers to the successful settlement and integration of newcomers.
