  • Institutional Innovation for Better Skilled Immigrant Labour Market Integration: a STUDY of the TORONTO REGION IMMIGRANT EMPLOYMENT COUNCIL (TRIEC)
    Institutional Innovation for Better Skilled Immigrant Labour Market Integration: A STUDY OF THE TORONTO REGION IMMIGRANT EMPLOYMENT COUNCIL (TRIEC) by Paul Lewkowicz A thesis submitted to the Department of Geography In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (August, 2008) Copyright ©Paul Lewkowicz, 2008 Abstract In this thesis, I undertake a study of skilled immigrant labour market integration in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) by examining the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council (TRIEC). TRIEC is a relatively new governance institution in the Toronto city-region established to address barriers preventing immigrants from gaining meaningful employment in their fields. Barriers include systemic discrimination, lack of credential recognition, and lack of Canadian work experience. TRIEC was created in response to a recommendation from the 2003 Toronto City Summit Alliance (TSCA) report Enough Talk. TRIEC is a multi-stakeholder organization that aims to engage employers to find solutions to address labour market barriers facing skilled immigrants in the GTA. This thesis examines some of these labour market barriers and the work of TRIEC and poses the following research questions: What are the factors both impeding and facilitating the labour market integration of skilled immigrants in the GTA? Has the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council model proven effective in terms of its impact on skilled immigrant labour market integration in the GTA? What are possible solutions for addressing the challenges that impede the labour market integration of skilled immigrants in the GTA? To answer these questions, this thesis draws on insights from immigration geography literature, statistical and policy data, as well as fifty-seven (57) semi-structured interviews with a variety of key stakeholders in the GTA.

  • A Look at Rookie Members of Ontario's Provincial Parliament
    “New Kids on the Block” A Look at Rookie Members of Ontario’s Provincial Parliament Sabrina Hoque While academics have produced a plethora of research on rookie Members of Parliament not much has not been written on the challenges and perspectives faced by rookie politicians at the provincial level. This article seeks to examine the impact and efficacy of such ‘newness’ on good governance at the provincial level. It is based primarily on interviews with rookie and veteran MPPs, legislative staff members, and others directly involved with the political process in Queen’s Park after the October 2007 provincial elections. The key questions addressed in this paper are: how much vitality and new energy do rookie MPPs inject into the provincial legislature? How are their efforts manifested and differentiated from MPPs that preceded them? Indeed, what challenges do rookie MPPs with innovative ambitions face by those veterans seeking to uphold and maintain the traditional practice and status quo? he role of an MPP backbencher is “to faithfully not get sucked into the life of Queen’s Park.” While espouse their parties’ policies in the Legislature admitting that as a rookie MPP, she is still learning the Tand on the hustings; to be ombudsmen for determinants of an ‘effective’ MPP, Laura Albanese, their constituents; and to familiarize themselves rookie MPP of York South-Weston, was in agreement with the details of complex areas of policy.”1 When with her fellow liberal caucus member, stating that an asked what defined an ‘effective’ MPP and whether

  • Air-Rail Link Community Meetings Set for February
    TRANSPORTATION: Air-rail link community meetings set for February By CLARK KIM January 22, 2009 1:21 PM A revised proposal that would see an air-rail link connecting Union Station to Pearson airport through Weston was announced this week by the provincial agency responsible for improving the regional transportation network in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. Metrolinx, a crown agency of Ontario, will be overseeing the project that also includes looking into expanding service on the Georgetown GO Transit line to Etobicoke and Brampton. But Metrolinx chair Rob MacIsaac assured that community input will be gathered before formally starting the environmental assessment process. "We want to hear from communities along the corridor," said MacIsaac. "Listening to the public will be fundamental to the success of this very important transportation project." Six such public consultations will be taking place starting Feb. 3 with two of those meetings to be held in the former city of York. The air-rail link, also referred to as Blue-22, has been a contentious issue in Weston with initial plans showing a high-speed train cutting Weston in half, closing some streets, and separating homes from nearby businesses. Local residents were also concerned about the increase in pollution as a result of having diesel-powered trains run through Weston without even making a stop in the community to pick up passengers. While Metrolinx stressed it is committed to public consultations, some preliminary information was unveiled Wednesday about what will be studied in the environmental assessment process. That includes reviewing proposed plans to upgrade the current GO Transit Weston stop to a full Weston GO station for both GO Transit and air-rail link trains.
