A new study by Statistics Canada and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has found that advanced education significantly improves employment prospects for immigrants with disabilities. Drawing from the 2022 Canadian Survey on Disability, researchers discovered that while immigrant men and women with disabilities face notable employment challenges compared to their peers without disabilities, the gap narrows substantially among those holding bachelor’s degrees or higher. The findings show immigrant women with disabilities who earned university degrees achieved employment rates comparable to those without disabilities, suggesting that enhanced educational support could prove instrumental in breaking down workplace barriers for this population across Canada.
