Understanding Newcomers’ Experiences
Over the past few years, RIFTNO has completed two studies. The purpose is to better understand newcomers’ experiences and shed light on the trends in Francophone immigration in the NWT. These studies were funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada and conducted by researchers Guillaume Deschênes-Thériault and Stéphanie Bacher.
Study One
The first study focused on issues specific to the NWT and was published in 2021.
Study Two
The second study looks at issues across the Prairies and Northern Territories (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, NWT, Nunavut) and will be published in the spring of 2023.
