The thesis provides a historical and geographical analysis of Chinese immigration to the USA and Canada. It includes a historical overview of immigration trends, ranging from the initial arrivals in the 19th century to the period of immigration restrictions and their subsequent abolition in the latter half of the 20th century. Furthermore, it examines contemporary trends in Chinese migration flows to the USA and Canada, their settlement patterns, and the composition of the Chinese community in both countries. It concludes with a comparison of the similarities and differences in Chinese immigration between the two countries.
