  3. These three cities were chosen because they are home to over two-thirds of all young people aged 15 to 24 who were not born in Canada. All of the participants in the focus groups had arrived in Canada within the previous five years. Focus group participants were divided into groups according to their ages: those aged 15 to 19 and youth aged 20 to 24. Each group contained one or two young people who were refugees. The composition of the groups reflected the proportions of young people who have recently immigrated to Canada by their regions of origin.
