چکیده

Ce document compare l’état de santé des immigrants et leur utilisation des services de santé à ceux de la population d’origine canadienne à l’aide de données provenant de deux cycles (1985 et 1991) de l’Enquête sociale générale (ESG). Les résultats obtenus démontrent que l’état de santé des immigrants de même que leur utilisation des services de santé ne sont pas significativement différents de ceux de la population d’origine canadienne. Lorsque nous combinons les cycles de l’ESG, les résultats révèlent que l’état de santé et l’utilisation des services de santé par les immigrants n’ont pas changé dans le temps.
