Title
Exploring the English-speaking Landscape : A Typology of Vulnerability Associated with Employment in Quebec's English-speaking Population
Abstract
This exploratory study uses geodemographic analytical methods to investigate the English-speaking population of Quebec, with a specific focus on vulnerability indicators associated with employment and their spatial distribution within the province. Using Ward’s cluster analysis method, eight distinct groups were identified and mapped, each showcasing unique characteristics that warrant tailored policy measures to effectively tackle regional employment challenges. Future research should delve into the differential impacts of various variables across clusters, particularly those related to mobility and aboriginal identity, thereby facilitating the derivation of targeted policy interventions.
