2. Why Access To Data Important
Data is critical for understanding our
communities, in the daily decision-making process
Access to data facilitates important debate about
the nature of our communities and development
of innovative solutions
How do we get debate into the public square? How
do we engage the citizen and public in important
debates in our communities?
What are we allowed to imagine about the state of
the nation?

23. Longitudinal Immigration Database
The Longitudinal Immigration Database (IMDB) is a database
combining linked immigration and taxation records. The
database is managed by Statistics Canada on behalf of a federal-
provincial consortium led by Citizenship & Immigration Canada.
A person is included in the database only if he or she obtained
landed immigrant status since 1980 and filed at least one tax
return since 1982.
The IMDB was created to respond to the need for detailed and
reliable data on the performance and impact of the Immigration
Program. It allows the analysis of relative labour market
behaviour of different categories of immigrants over a period
long enough to assess the impact of immigrant characteristics,
such as education and knowledge of French or English, to their
settlement success. It also allows the measurement and analysis
of secondary inter-provincial and inter-urban migration.
