There are more immigrants coming in through this class, said Statistics Canada senior analyst Scott McLeish. The median income of people who arrived in Canada in 2014 was 24,000 a year later, the highest on record for landed immigrants since 1981. They already have experience working in Canada in high skills occupations.

So they're starting from a different point than other immigrants.
