Summary

A Media Technology Monitor survey found that newcomers who arrived in Canada within the past five years use AI tools, social media and short-form video more often than Canadian-born respondents. Among 4,000 newcomers surveyed, 80% used AI tools, compared with roughly half as many Canadian-born respondents; 89% watched short-form vertical video, versus 60% of the comparison group. The findings also show higher social media use among newcomers (95% versus 85%).
