A Country’s Employment Rates Vs It’s Ethnic Diversity __** **Introduction and Background Information** <span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; msoansilanguage: EN-CA; msoasciithemefont: minor-latin; msobidifontfamily: 'Times New Roman'; msobidilanguage: AR-SA; msobidithemefont: minor-bidi; msofareastfontfamily: Calibri; msofareastlanguage: EN-US; msofareastthemefont: minor-latin; msohansithemefont: minor-latin;">Canada is one of the most culturally diverse countries because of many luring attributes and positive benefits. When citizens seek out a new place to live and generate a life there are factors they must consider. For some it is a safe country or specific area, others it is based on education but a common aspect everyone must consider is their best chance for employment so they may support themselves and their family. I chose this topic for my wiki because i was interested in finding out how influential employment rates of a country really are for immigrants making a decision on where to settle down for theire new life. As well I was interested in learning what countires have these benefits and which are the most culturally diverse to this date. ** Question ** Does the overall employment rates of immigrants in a country, looking globally at the current years 1996-2009, influence the percentage of ethnic diversity in the country? **
 * __ ​

Hypothesis ** My Hypothesis is that the greatest amount of ethnic diversity will be in the wealthier and more stable countires who have more oppertunites for employment. These countires give better possiblities for giving their populations work and generating a stable income for its residents. Those with higher employment rates are are more likely to have a higher standard of living and better quality of life for their citizens. Countries such as Canada have constantly increasing employment rates; ones which put a high selection of the population into work. These employment rates continue to remain consistant for months at a time or increase; thus leads me to believe that these more stable countries offering employmnet rates to a greater number of people will have the greatest amount of ethnic diversity. According to statistics released by Canadian immigration authorities, Canada accepted the highest number of temporary and permanent residents in its history in 2007. Canada admitted 429,649 permanent residents, temporary foreign workers, and foreign students more than 60,000 higher than four years ago, Citizenship and Immigration Canada said.
 * Data **

And according to top new in the usnited states:

"WASHINGTON, Oct. 3 (UPI) -- After 40 years of increases, the number of immigrants living in the United States declined between 2007 and 2008, the U.S. Census Bureau reported. The number of non-citizens, a term that includes legal residents and illegal immigrants, dropped from 21.9 million in 2007 to 21.6 million in 2008, CNN reported. The number of foreign-born people comprised 12.6 percent of the U.S. population in 2007 and 12.5 percent in 2008, the bureau said.

Here is a link that shows the unemplyment rates in the United States in 2007: []

Here is a link to several graphs, the third being the important. It is a graph that explains the immigrants coming into the United States from 1820-2010 []

U.S. population has grown by 1.2% per year over the last 50 years. This "low" growth rate means it has taken 58 years for population to fouble. We can expect this doubling to continue, drastically magnified by the impact of unrealistically high levels of mass immigration into the united states.

There is a chance for bias in the graphs above.
 * Bias **

Measurement Bias: because all these graphas are based on numbers and percentages there is the chance that these numbers are either over or under estimated. As a result the over all statistics would be incorrect. The problem is the collection process and the solution would be to more carefully collect the data. Cluster sample: this is a possibility because in many of these charts it is only the united states being studied for population of immigrants or employment rates which means not all countires are being looked at. It may not be an accurate study of the statistical information. A way out of this would be to include other single countries data samples to have a bigger sample of the worlds population or to look at all of the countires equally not just the united States, Canada etc.
 * Sampling techniques **

A cluster sample could also be a strong sampling technique because this cluster could reflect correctly on the entire population considering the factor that most immigrants are looking for the same thing; employment. = One Variable Analysis/ Calculations = = 1.
