Statistics Canada: Decent Shape

Poor Health Dept: This bad news about Metro was buried in a recent report from Statistics Canada, which surveyed 7,000 immigrants and found roughly one in 10 report poor health four years after most arrive in decent shape, according to Vancouver Sun. But it didn't do anything to explore Vancouver's correlation with sickness and why is Metro Vancouver so hard on immigrants' health? The StatsCan report had no trouble emphasizing its unsurprising findings that newcomers to Canada who are refugees, older, can't find work and struggle with English or French end up reporting more illness.
