The Source begins 2005 with a closer look at remittances to Mexico from the United States. We also explore the likelihood of increased US migration to Canada. Read also about the European Union's latest five-year plan to manage migration and promote integration. This month's Country Profile focuses on Nepal, and our Spotlight examines the history of Hmong resettlement in the United States. This month you'll find:

migration and remittance patterns of Oaxacan migrants from Mexico,

the likelihood of increased American emigration to Canada
based on historical parallels.
- a new Country Profile of Nepal
by David Seddon of the University of East Anglia, which examines emigration from the country and why the government has been slow to realize its benefits.
- a Spotlight on the foreign-born Hmong in the United States,
with an overview of policies affecting their settlement as refugees and an overview of the numerical trends.
