A new study suggests Canada’s high global ranking on life satisfaction masks important gaps, especially for racialized immigrants, who report significantly lower well-being than Canadian-born, non-racialized residents.
The research, conducted by the Population Health Research Institute, a joint institute of McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences, draws on data from more than 8,000 adults and uses the Cantril Ladder, a global scale where people rate their life from 0 (worst possible) to 10 (best possible).
Racists everywhere!
