Abstract
Abstract The records of Canadian immigration authorities provide primary data for examining two fundamental features of emigration from Scotland to Canada in the last two decades. First, temporal variations in emigration level and composition are related to trends in employment and in immigrant selection policy. Second, the spatial pattern of movement, at both origin (Scottish regions) and destination (Canadian provinces), is interpreted through the influence of former spatial patterns of movement and contemporary socio‐economic forces.
