The video of the January 18 webinar "Geographic Mobility and Intergenerational Transmission of Income in Quebec" is now available online.
Organized in collaboration with the Quebec Inter-University Centre for Social Statistics (QICSS) and the Canadian Research Data Centre Network, this seminar was an opportunity for authors Marie Connolly and Xavier St-Denis to present the analyses and results of a recent CIRANO study on social mobility.

This study is the first to examine the influence of geographic mobility on intergenerational income transmission in Quebec. The authors show that the phenomenon of "social immobility" affects more young people who grew up outside major cities, particularly those who still live there in their early thirties.
