His main research interests revolve around Canadian immigration, refugee, and citizenship policies, especially in terms of situating contemporary debates within a more extensive historical context. His most recent project explores the intersection of ethnic identities and national identity in multicultural liberal-democratic states. Alongside articles in Canadian Parliamentary Review, the Journal of Canadian Studies, and the Canadian Journal of Political Science (forthcoming), he has co-authored a chapter on the political integration of immigrants in Canada and is revising a manuscript on the first century of Canadian border control policies concerning international migration.
