A virtual currency depicting the value immigrants add --
and the price they pay to do it.
In a recent Leger survey for the ICC, 30% of newcomers under 35 say they are likely to leave Canada in the next two years, mostly due to the effects of this pay inequity. To help Canadians wake up to the harsh reality immigrants face in the job market, we've created "The Disparity Coin", a virtual currency driven by immigration and employment data that highlights newcomers' true value, and the work we must do to ensure they receive it.
