According to Statistics Canada's latest report on Quality of Employment, released August 18, 2025, significant wage disparities persist among immigrant groups despite overall wage growth.

Filipino and Black employees experience the largest wage gaps at -25.9% and -22.2% respectively, compared to non-racialized counterparts. Even with higher education, Filipino workers with bachelor's degrees earn 33.4% less ($32.14 vs $48.26) than their non-racialized peers.

The data highlights continuing systemic challenges for immigrants in Canada's labour market despite the average national hourly wage increasing to $35.20 in 2024.
