- Abstract
- This thesis examines the relationship of levels of integration and quality of life of Prince George's largest immigrant group, the Indo-Canadians. The study found that the city's Indo-Canadian group expressed an even higher satisfaction rate with overall quality of life than other Prince George residents, who already scored very high in an earlier study made by Alex Michalos. No relationship, however, between the level of integration and quality of life was found by the author.
