The basic aim of this study is to describe the existing formal associations of West Indian immigrants in Montreal. This involves presenting first, information on the types of West Indian associations present in Montreal in terms of their ideology and goals, plus information on their organizational structure, hierarchy of offices end roles, formalization of authority and activities, membership base and recruitment policies. Secondly this involves describing the activities of these associations in terms of how these activities meet the needs of West Indian immigrants in Montreal, on the individual and the group level; and how these associations are the expression of divisive or cohesive forces in the West Indian immigrant group itself.
