Upon his arrival in Canada in 1914, he taught at the Tiferes Israel School in Lipton, Saskatchewan, was field inspector for the Western farm colonies of the Jewish Colonization Association, and later became the director of the Western Region office of Canadian Jewish Congress. Rosenberg joined the national headquarters staff of CJC in Montreal in 1945, where, in the position of director of the Bureau of Social and Economic research, he continued his lifelong study of Canadian Jewish demographics and history. He died in 1987.
