In this study, sense of belonging among immigrant groups in Canada is examined in relation to how it is influenced by social networks and institutional participation. In addition, this research project seeks to determine a relationship with social capital while controlling for sex, educational attainment, length of time in Canada, admission classes and racialized groups, as these influence sense of belonging in Canada. Based on various studies like that of Soroka et al (2007) and Hou et al (2017), these factors influence sense of belonging and immigrants’ overall well-being. Portes’ social capital theory and Durkheimian theory on social solidarity are used to affirm the importance of examining immigrant experiences. The purpose of this study is not to prove or disprove their theories but to highlight immigrant welfare and sense of sense of belonging based on social networking. The 2013 General Social Survey on Social Identity dataset was used for analysis of 9,689 individuals born outside of Canada. Univariate, bivariate and multivariate analyses revealed overall that immigrants have a high sense of belonging as 2/3 of respondents reported having a strong sense of belonging. However when controlling for sex and admission classes, the strength of their sense of belonging varies. It is recommended that more community based research be done, while combining both quantitative and qualitative methods of research.
