Blu there is no point. When one runs into...let me think with...a Jamaican working in a low paying job and they basically speak patois and struggle in English, it would be extremely rude to ask "You 'ave you landed?" So there is no way I can identify whether someone is a landed immigrant or a temporary worker. I can tell you for a fact that when I was working heavily with families in the community who were having NUFF problems.....most of them had their landed. The people I a running into have families here so chances are they are landed.
I am just pointing out that RichD's assertion that recent arrivals are cream of the crop in terms of education is not accurate.
I know someone who could tell me as he works for the Immigration and Refugee Board but I am not going to bother him with this foolishness to prove what we already know.Comment

Okay this should kill your present line of reasoning
The president of the Black Students Association (BSA), Nneka C. Eze ’07, pointed out that the 300 members of her group span not just several countries—but entire continents.
“Whether they are from Africa, from the Caribbean, second generation, 10th, 20th generation...there is such variation within the students in BSA,” she said.
And nearly 20 members of the BSA identify as white, according to the group’s former president, Lawrence E. Adjah ’06.
As leader of the BSA for a year starting in the spring of 2004, Adjah made no effort to count the number of whites within its ranks or to identify them specifically. “Everybody was equal,” he said.
But even when campus organizations don’t single out members who are transcending ethnic barriers, these students do sometimes stick out.
