Population-based differences in cancer incidence between immigrants and non-immigrants in Canada between 1992 and 2015
Results demonstrated the healthy immigrant effect lessens over time spent in Canada. However, this effect was not uniform across countries of origin and cancer types. Therefore, this research, provides a deeper understanding of immigrant cancer outcomes and will be useful for cancer planning services and cancer control strategies.
