Integration timeline
Participants in 3 categories:
1) newcomers (5 or less years in Canada)
2) established immigrants (greater than 5 years in Canada)
3) second generation immigrants
Key findings
1) Only 1 in 5 trans or non-binary newcomers accessed a settlement service within their first year in Canada.
2) Trans or non-binary newcomers were 2x as likely to NOT have a primary healthcare provider than trans or non-binary second generation immigrants and trans or non-binary immigrants who have been in Canada for more than 5 years.
Key populations
Trans or non-binary newcomers in every Canadian province
Key recommendations
Make research on trans and non-binary immigrants a greater priority
