IMMIGRANTS. Out of 65,090 New Westminster residents surveyed, 7% identified as recent immigrants. New Westminster has a nominally higher percentage of recent immigrants compared to Metro Vancouver’s 6.8% (see Appendix D). Compared to Metro Vancouver’s recent immigrant unemployment rate of 11% however, New Westminster’s recent immigrants reported a higher unemployment rate of 13% (see Appendix E). These statistics demonstrate a need to focus on serving the immigrant populations to connect to the labour market in New Westminster (“Immigration and ethnocultural diversity,” 2011).
