I work in a cabinet shop with twenty employees. I am the only Canadian citizen working there and they are all full time workers. From what I can see they are all international students who are not studying anything.
Canada has become to expensive for those students, they can't survive in 20hr a week...most of Indians students have stopped applying for Canadian colleges already..
@@northvanwan7428nah I think this is a great decision to be doing this. It's going to help us Canadians in the long run, trust me. Besides I doubt Trudeau had anything to do with this idea.
I have a better plan, that will actually make a difference: - 5 year international student cap - 5 year immigration cap with exception of health care and construction professionals - 5 year cap how many houses someone can buy, if they already are a home owner - 10 year ban to home selling for people not living in canada - rent rates can only increase following inflation rate - remove carbon tax
It would be helpful if Canadians could get support in going to university so we could fill those professional shortages, buy food, houses and have children and careers.
Well then the government would not be able to Bring into the country those ukranians that are here to replace you 😂😂😂, you keep working paying, and taxes as the government needs billions to send them to you know where 😂😂😂 yes you guess it Ukraine 😂😂😂
We don't need support, we need to remove government controls so that we can afford to take care of ourselves. These weren't problems before Trudeau and all his measures have resulted in less money for us to decide what we want to do. We need to stop giving liberals more power when they are the ones who are screwing everything up.
@@jasonclark1985 Good luck getting accepted as a Canadian student compared to international. They prioritize them first cause they pay more. It's disgusting.
Just shut down the diploma mills and those with low barriers to come as students. If I as a canadian student want to study in the US the bar is sooo high. There needs to be a drastic drop in international students specifically for undergrad and "certificates" This does not go far enough and does not help.
I study in the Us as a Canadian and the bar really isn’t that high. You easily get an international visa as a Canadian and can go to any no- name college.
Canadian govt intentionally invited too many students for quick $$....most of students arrived in last couple of years are regretting...its not their fault its canadian govt who are to be blamed here...why eat so much than you can digest
this is an excellent point. It should be just as prestigious to come to Canada to study as it is with the United States Why are we the suckers all the time? Why are we the ones paying the price?
“It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.” Thomas Sowell
Finally, I used to be an international student before a Canadian citizen. 600,000 students a year is too much. They are not studying, many of them got permits from college mills, and they are working and taking jobs and housing from local people. We welcome legitimate, capable students, especially in trades, transportation, health care, and STEM, which are the fields that Canada needs
I’d rather we put more effort into educating and training Canadians. I went applying to trade school not even a year ago. Most of the programs had waiting lists. You need to be a rocket scientists to get into an RN program right now, and I know some insanely bright and competent ppl who were turned away from medicine programs. Why would we welcome foreign students into our schools for programs for which there already isn’t nearly enough room?
My sister works in a department store, she says the store mostly hires foreigners and most of them lie on the application, most of them have trouble speaking English and basically need a translator/babysitter because they can't talk to customers on their own.
Yes you can’t order food anymore at a drive thru. Putting people in school is one thing but when they leave and go to the us for work.. who does this help
The reality is if they put cap on refugees on the first place, we never had to witness this mess. When I see refugees easily get their PR and citizenship while graduates should go through harder process, it blows my mind.
Yes. My point exactly. Immigration is not the solution to population decline. Which US not a bad thing, BTW. our problem in this country is that we are a small country pretending to be a large one.
Refugees are the main issue. Most don't work at all and the government has been using hundreds of millions from our tax money to feed them. As someone pointed out, stop pretending we are some big rich country and have enough to freeload anyone. Whoever cut down on refugee program has my vote.
@@qualityman1965 are there any other solutions to population decline? And if so, could you point me towards any country that successfully implemented those solutions and reversed their population decline?
International students please be happy there is a cap , Canada isn’t worth the hype , taxes, not good paying jobs, rent so high, homelessness and poverty is through the roof .
Yeah. Im not too sure why people think Canada is a paradise. One factor could be all the social services afforded to new immigrants. Canadians get no support.
You pretty much need either a master's degree or an in-demand trades skill and a few years of work experience in order to qualify for Express Entry. And you better be no older than 30, the immigration scoring system penalizes you for every year of age. Is that not enough for you?
@@MelaniaRose ugh. How much do you ACTUALLY know about how the immigration process works? An independent entity called the WES assesses your education credentials and determines whether it considers them equivalent to a Master's degree or not. I personally know people who have a PhD and who didn't have it recognized by WES just because it is from a third-world country. Also, it's perfectly doable to have two Master's degrees by age 23. I had my Master's by age 21. Had I wanted to, I could have had a second one by age 23. In fact, many Master's programs only take a year to complete.
@@spikygreen Just spoke off of my experience. Some of them were low quality with high expectation for pay and etc but not willing to work hard. I’m not saying that all international students are like that (I was once an international student myself) but with no control on quntity it compromised the quality.
one of these east indian student told me they literally apply for any course for any college and go whereever they get accepted because once they are in the country they dont plan on leaving. he literally said its the strategize to guarantee to live and work in canada without going through normal migration
it's been. an open secret around the world, fo years, that the way to game the immigration system in Canada is to come here on a student visa..I've personally met dozens of people that came here on student visas, worked full time, and then got their PR.. Yet try as a Canadian to move to their countries.. nearly impossible..
@@TalwinderDhillonTravels India, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia.. I could add more countries that I haven't tried to get visas for, that I know are equally hard to get a visa, and those countries also don't have the 'get a student visa, work full time, and then a full work permit after your schooling (if you even go) is finished..
None of this will help the housing crisis. The problem is that developers and brokers have been allowed to get away with exploiting people, and the markets. They keep asking for more leeway to build new "inventory" (aka places for people to live). then construct "inventory" that are both too expensive for the regular person and smaller than shoe-boxes. On the rental side individuals, managers and brokers are allowed to sit on empty apartments to drive the prices up with impunity, because real-estate is now a commodity in which to park money.
Exactly. But no, let's just scapegoat international students, who tend to rent bedrooms in properties that most locals wouldn't be looking to live in anyway.
@@spikygreen International students are Cash cows for the universities and Collages but it's not them but rather how many was let in. 600,000 international students a year plus almost 500,000 immigrants it's alot. thats over a million people a year that need to be housed and have access to healthcare and services. So in the end they are a part of the problem, Because they contribute alot to the Demand which causes Prices to go up. The Cap will help ease the Demand a little and get the supply to slowly catch up
@@thegreatcanadianlumberjack5307 we need those young productive immigrants, otherwise we will become a Canada-sized retirement home in a few years. Would you say "it's too much of an increase in population per year" if that one million people were born in Canada every year? The solution is not to have fewer immigrants. It is to build more available and affordable housing and to have regulations keeping developers and rental managers in check.
Much more restrictive limits should be placed on all immigration, refugees, so called "temporary" workers and permanent residents. The massive increases in newcomers of all kinds have seriously destabilized Canada. The numbers have overwhelmed our housing, health care, education and social support systems and created increased social tensions. Consider the unaffordable tax increases being faced by Toronto homeowners who are now being forced to pay for the cost of supporting a massive influx of refugees sanctioned by our government
you're wrong but sure ok, we had these problems b4 the added immigrants, healthcare is being dismantled on purpose by conservative premiers to vet in privatization,
Consider that high immigration has been the backbone of Canada's economic growth and prosperity. Without young educated workers we'd be a country of retirees.
@@spikygreenpretty much, also working immigrants pay into the tax system and cpp pensions which is why the seniors in canada can now get a measly 1200 a month of pension. My mom gets that in her home country as her pension.

@@vmwindustries Yea this all started under cons. I’m no lib or NDP fan, but the incentives are clear here, and Canadians need to remove their ideological blinders for once.
I am a current international student. I think this policy actually benefits those who are in more prestigous study programs and want to stay after their degrees. Cutting down numbers of people coming in on "diploma mill" sponsorship would mean more opportunities in job and pr for those who are studying in legitimate insititutions.
Plus hopefully quicker visa processing times for legitimate international students too. Real policy impact remains to be seen, but I certainly hope my assessment is right.
Exactly. I agree. It's to be honest annoying to have a Computer Science degree from UBC and dealing with so many hassles for something that was originally intended to be Canada's signature in a smooth mutually-benefiting pathway for immigration of skills & talents worldwide to the nation. Wth is up with 20,000 international students to these random institutions? They're just filling up the pool of potential valuable immigrants by making Canadian education have no meaning.
Also an international student here, finishing my 4th year and getting my degree really soon. I actually almost went to college and am very grateful that I ended up choosing university. While I sympathize with other international students navigating this whole journey, I do feel that some students at some colleges contribute to a frustrating work environment because of their absence from classes and participation. Other people paid good money to come and learn and while I understand that some students may have to work to make a living, it doesn't mean that other people should have the bear the consequences, there are group works involved and I have heard horror stories about students never attending classes. I remain hopeful that these changes will benefit both legitimate international students and Canadians alike but we'll have to wait and see. Best of luck to you both!
The institutions should be more diligent in fulfilling their duties as designted study institutions and report significant gaps to IRCC, but they are apparently not doing it. They are pure profit driver diploma mills and they create a situation where no one wins: legit students cannot learn, students with alterior motives pay huge money, and over blown number of study permit holders means less opportunities for others. It's sad really such institutions are allowed to give empty promises to their international student bases.@@nunnil1655
For god sake stop this madness , when I walk in Edmonton if feel I’m in Delhi. cars doubled in price, homes, rentals, groceries, I’m very concern if have to go to hospital how long I will have to stay in waiting line, they are coming to get stuck in here. Traffic is crazy in the morning. Very simple way to solve this is to have conditional acceptance with no work permit after graduation and you will see the numbers will cut in half.
Honestly though! They should be processing all local applications before looking at the international ones, and fill any spaces that are left with them. What a disgrace this country has become!
@traceym1778 international tuition is double domestic. And it's cash up front. Domestic is slip-funded. Much of domestic tuition takes a few years to hit a college's bottom line
Yes, because tuition is crazy high for international students. I noticed that the other day looking at school info. As a white woman in her 40’s I’m in trouble.

yes, have equal quota for each country. Or do it like the US, have the same number of immigration officers for each country. Will make country with huge application go through a backlog and slow down.
The cap should be permanently set so Canada only welcomes students who are here to study. Cap the hours they can work at, say, 15 per week, ensure the students have the money to pay their tuition when they come, and make it clear that being a student is not a path to citizenship.
Although I agree that being a student should not be a path to citizenship, we do want them to stay and contribute after they completed their educations. So I would say just make it harder to get citizenship.

@@James-eq8cq What edit? I didn't even see your little snark for an hour. Plenty of people from all around the world came here and learned the language. When I was young, pretty much any corner store you walked into had an Asian manning the till. If you asked them for a very specific brand of cigarettes, they handed you just that. Later, it was Indians. Same thing. They made an effort to learn English. So did my wife. Their kids speak perfect English. I don't know where these people are coming from now, but they barely speak a word. Like someone tried to teach them how in a couple of hours. It is also very difficult to make yourself understood. This is not racism. It's a fact. Everyone adapted, going way back. This new group doesn't seem to be.
It was interesting to hear that many of these studends are not even going to university . It would be foolish to assume that this has just happened under Trudeau hwever. When the students apply for a visa why are they not required to provide proof of acceptance at a recognized university?
Besides higher English requirements, Canada 🇨🇦 needs to also check for national security risks. - Many Chinese students don't come to Canada to study, but to grab Canadian intellectual properties.
I work as a janitor in nursing homes / hospitals . None of my friends got the job but it seems we only hire foreign students the past years . Also i cant get into a school program and im starting to suspect its because I have a full time job and I piss standing up . Sick of quotas
No where near enough reduction. And, the reduction should be back to "2012 levels" and apply to every regular public University, and College. The Federal government also needs to end ALL foreign student Work Permits until the Post Graduate Work Permit level. Work Permits for new and undergraduate visas have only been available for about dozen years, and they have been an absolute disaster for local Canadian Youth Employment rates, and local housing.
Yes I will be compiling a list and reporting it that along with the many fraudulent mortgages that the banks have given to Indian immigrants who don't qualify for them. It's gonna be really juicy when it gets out to the public 😮
Too late I have worked in education industry in recruitment since 2005 and I can tell you this mess started from 2012. Greed from colleges in BC and Ontario to open campuses in warehouses in GTA specially is a clear picture of what I am saying
Not just greed. Neoliberalism. Conscious government policy. A kind of off-shoring of tuition, a privatization of education. It takes the average Punjabi family 74 years to afford one year of college education here. Canada brings in 21 billion a year from international students. Colonialism, pure and simple. Shame.

So comical how EVERYONE can now talk openly about this Immigration problem when anyone even whispering this issue 2 years ago was deemed a major racist. I've seen people lose their jobs from openly talking about this subject.
Unfortunately people do use it to be racist and everyone else gets lumped in with that. I support the idea of people from all kinds of places coming to Canada to make their lives better, but people have been abusing the system and the government took way too long to regulate it. The damage is done not only on the economy, etc., but also the Canadian people's will to lend out a helping hand
I am an immigrant to be honest what i loved about Canda was diversity but to go to my school and see 85% Indians and go to most places are Indians its to much. Don't cap just diversity immigrants coming in. Bzw most of the Indians in my school they are working and using other people SIN lot of illegal aciticty they are doing.
Eventually, when these students all get their PRs...they will sponsor their families and settle, adding so much burden to the taxpayers because of healthcare, foodbanks, and other subsidized services.
You act like these PR residents won’t be paying their fair share of taxes. How do you know that they wont be the ones making bank and becoming big taxpayers?
The main goal for the students is just getting their pr and bringing there parents to Canada no one really comes to study they just come to work even if they work at time Hortons and make 12 dollars a hr or become general manager at Tim Hortons. The general manager can make up to 18$ that $720 dollars after taxes that will be like 500 something most dont make that much back home .. they work and pay of there study fees but manly there main goals is to get a pr and buy a house . They just but more of a burden on the healthcare system . Most students all move to Toronto Brampton they are becoming a nightmare
Why aren't these jobs given to homeless people. The homeless is an issue. They go up to our cars when we are stopped at traffic. The garbage is out of control. Please help the Canadians, seriously. It's affecting all of us in some way or another.
Why do you feel superior than other recent graduated and put yourself next to Canadians? May I ask? I’m also a recently graduated international student but I don’t comment like you
Cap on all types for 2 years immigration until infrastructure is readily available to accommodate the housing, etc. There should be a total band on the purchase of property for investment purposes. Non residents should not be allowed to invest in the real estate market. It should made available for residence for living purpose only to contain the real estate bubbles.
Canada should not fund foreign wars, give away money, and let in many international people, especially when the country's economy is basically on life support and our own citizens/people can't afford the current economy. There is a time and place to help others and a time and place to help yourself. Metaphor: It's like an almost homeless man with his last orange that he *needs* to eat to save his life but he decides to give it away to his neighbor who can ask anybody else in the apartment building for food. Also, the almost homeless man, in such his poor condition should also be asking for food from others too (because that's how dire things are) but he doesn't because he'd rather give away his last orange. 🤦♀️
@@specialtwice4975 unfortunately Justin Trudeau hasn't given the people of Canada to make the choice of helping or not. I say from day one Justin Trudeau was the end of Canada.
Great. This should be done because schools are taking advantage of them. But now this will mean that either domestic students have to pay the real costs of their education, or the fed and prov govts will have to pony up more cash. It also won't be long until people see this won't make a dent in the housing crisis as the majority of these students are 3-4 to a tiny apartment. This will allow us to address the real issue, there is no profit in starter homes. In my area all the sfhs being built are McMansions starting at 700k, and luxury condos.
I used to live in an area that was building a lot of luxury apartments. They'd be almost $2,000k/month and some were 1 bedrooom TWO bathrooms... we need more housing that the average person can afford. Stop wasting land in cities
I am confused... why would we be denying young people who desire to better their education and are paying for that education, and yet we let hundreds of thousands of uneducated people into our country that we have to subsidize?
Indeed. Have you seen how professors live? Their salaries are through the roof! It's not like international students are subsidizing the tuition of Canadians. It's not only 15% of university students from other countries are paying half of all tuition collected. Never!
@@marcusalexanderhunke3291 so what's the whole story ,I find it sad that the kids who go to university are being played. Some are paying thousands of dollars for classes that give nothing in return. What is woman studies or gender studies. Should they be learning to become leaders and builders of tomorrow. It does look like many become activists, even working in human resources. Here in Canada I have heard of students from India going to food banks to save money but then send videos back home bragging about how easily they get away with stuff. And what about the money university administration has in trust. A chancellor being let go but because their term wasn't finished they get a lump sum payment of hundreds of thousands and then a nice pension.. individual teachers are a class of their own. Then you have class distinctions where some groups are violent towards other groups. Female students' Union being aggressive towards male students. There are a lot of things going on but no one is talking about how much money a university will make over the backs of their students. How can a university charge 50.000$ to any student and then that student isn't working in their preferred job. Having a degree in a talking subject like HR. How does that prepare you for future achievements while working in your field. I also heard that many of these protesters from university are being paid lots of money and are convinced that it's for a good cause. I'm sorry but we should never be educating young people from third world countries while failing to properly educating our own youth.
They need to put a cap on international students. Local fresh graduates here have a hard time getting jobs because a lot of those international students already have experience in their field, it's very difficult to compete with people who already have experience. Most of my international classmates got a job right after school whereas we local students are still jobless after a year of graduating. This liberal party is creating too many problems for us Canadians.
The Liberals are culpable, for sure, but education is provincial. Queen's Park pays just over half of what other provinces pay for colleges. Y/our tax cuts at work. They have simply offshored / privatized funding colleges to (mostly) poor people from India. Complex issue! We punch down, while those that create the conditions of unemployment and precarious employment (sending jobs to Mexico and China) get off the hook, laughing all the way to the bank while we bicker and punch down.

Funny thing a student from a country rents one apartment and bring additional 6 students to share with whiles the ordinary Canadian can't even afford rent now
With respect, following your own logic, if Canadians go seven to an apartment, they can afford it too, no? This is blaming the victim. The Ontario government refuses to fund education properly. The feds, until December, told the students they only need 900 dollars a month to survive here. God knows the lies the agents in India tell them. Y'know, bringing 21 billion dollars a year in from international students.... back in the day, this massive transfer of wealth from the third world was called colonialism. Now it's our tax cuts at work, and we punch down.Somebody is laughing all the way to the bank, and it ain't students seven to an apartment.

Large number of international students, refugees, and immigrants without proper thought and preparation equals disaster. It's time to recognize that letting in so many non-Canadians is causing undue burden and problems in the system.
The system has been broken for a long time, look at dorm rooms. foreign students will study for a business degree to take advantage of the heavy discounted cost of living in a dorm vs renting. Then work a full time job. I am not against immigration but we need skilled workers not another Walmart employee

Honestly. $1300+ for a room with a hot plate in a 'shared house' is the majority listing I can see for single dwelling rentals in Vancouver at this time.

Finally, I used to be an international student before a Canadian citizen. 600,000 students a year is too much. They are not studying, many of them got permits from college mills, and they are working and taking jobs and housing from local people. We welcome legitimate, capable students, especially in trades, transportation, health care, and STEM, which are the fields that Canada needs
I’d rather we put more effort into educating and training Canadians.
I went applying to trade school not even a year ago. Most of the programs had waiting lists.
You need to be a rocket scientists to get into an RN program right now, and I know some insanely bright and competent ppl who were turned away from medicine programs.
Why would we welcome foreign students into our schools for programs for which there already isn’t nearly enough room?
@@firstandforemost87we also need people with experience in similar fields in other countries.
50% cut for Ontario is not enough. Why not 90%. After all most students are all coming from India.
I agree… there are so many nationalities who want to come in, why INDIANS/SOUTH ASIANS flooded GTA ?
They moved the last immigration minister to a different position. Must be nice to get moved instead of being fired for not doing your job.
A step in the right direction. But way too late. Crisis management instead of good governance. Glad they put a cap in place though.
Hey, with this government, anything that isn't horrible is surprising, so something that's actually positive is amazing!

Much too late...the toothpaste is way out of the tube...
My sister works in a department store, she says the store mostly hires foreigners and most of them lie on the application, most of them have trouble speaking English and basically need a translator/babysitter because they can't talk to customers on their own.
Yes you can’t order food anymore at a drive thru. Putting people in school is one thing but when they leave and go to the us for work.. who does this help
than ask your government to make a higher ielts grade mandatory🤣
That’s ridiculous 😮
limiting students, but not refugees, is insane.

The reality is if they put cap on refugees on the first place, we never had to witness this mess. When I see refugees easily get their PR and citizenship while graduates should go through harder process, it blows my mind.
theres already a cap on refugees genius
@manalab1628 lol, open borders basically. Smarty pants
At this point immigration as a whole needs a cap.
Yes. My point exactly. Immigration is not the solution to population decline. Which US not a bad thing, BTW. our problem in this country is that we are a small country pretending to be a large one.
Perfectly said. God bless.
@@qualityman1965hdp😮
Refugees are the main issue. Most don't work at all and the government has been using hundreds of millions from our tax money to feed them. As someone pointed out, stop pretending we are some big rich country and have enough to freeload anyone. Whoever cut down on refugee program has my vote.
@@qualityman1965 are there any other solutions to population decline? And if so, could you point me towards any country that successfully implemented those solutions and reversed their population decline?
International students please be happy there is a cap , Canada isn’t worth the hype , taxes, not good paying jobs, rent so high, homelessness and poverty is through the roof .
Yeah. Im not too sure why people think Canada is a paradise. One factor could be all the social services afforded to new immigrants. Canadians get no support.
Canada’s only appealing when your home country is in a much worse state
Agree
Should emphasize on quality over quantity.
You pretty much need either a master's degree or an in-demand trades skill and a few years of work experience in order to qualify for Express Entry. And you better be no older than 30, the immigration scoring system penalizes you for every year of age. Is that not enough for you?
@@spikygreen problem is you see 23 year olds with 2 master degrees 😂
@@MelaniaRose ugh. How much do you ACTUALLY know about how the immigration process works? An independent entity called the WES assesses your education credentials and determines whether it considers them equivalent to a Master's degree or not. I personally know people who have a PhD and who didn't have it recognized by WES just because it is from a third-world country.
Also, it's perfectly doable to have two Master's degrees by age 23. I had my Master's by age 21. Had I wanted to, I could have had a second one by age 23. In fact, many Master's programs only take a year to complete.
@@spikygreen Just spoke off of my experience. Some of them were low quality with high expectation for pay and etc but not willing to work hard. I’m not saying that all international students are like that (I was once an international student myself) but with no control on quntity it compromised the quality.
one of these east indian student told me they literally apply for any course for any college and go whereever they get accepted because once they are in the country they dont plan on leaving. he literally said its the strategize to guarantee to live and work in canada without going through normal migration
it's been. an open secret around the world, fo years, that the way to game the immigration system in Canada is to come here on a student visa..I've personally met dozens of people that came here on student visas, worked full time, and then got their PR..
Yet try as a Canadian to move to their countries.. nearly impossible..
@@AaronAubreyPhoto have you tried moving to their countries?? just curious which country you tried to move to?
@@TalwinderDhillonTravels India, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia.. I could add more countries that I haven't tried to get visas for, that I know are equally hard to get a visa, and those countries also don't have the 'get a student visa, work full time, and then a full work permit after your schooling (if you even go) is finished..
None of this will help the housing crisis. The problem is that developers and brokers have been allowed to get away with exploiting people, and the markets. They keep asking for more leeway to build new "inventory" (aka places for people to live). then construct "inventory" that are both too expensive for the regular person and smaller than shoe-boxes. On the rental side individuals, managers and brokers are allowed to sit on empty apartments to drive the prices up with impunity, because real-estate is now a commodity in which to park money.
Exactly. But no, let's just scapegoat international students, who tend to rent bedrooms in properties that most locals wouldn't be looking to live in anyway.
@@spikygreen International students are Cash cows for the universities and Collages but it's not them but rather how many was let in. 600,000 international students a year plus almost 500,000 immigrants it's alot. thats over a million people a year that need to be housed and have access to healthcare and services. So in the end they are a part of the problem, Because they contribute alot to the Demand which causes Prices to go up. The Cap will help ease the Demand a little and get the supply to slowly catch up
@@thegreatcanadianlumberjack5307 we need those young productive immigrants, otherwise we will become a Canada-sized retirement home in a few years. Would you say "it's too much of an increase in population per year" if that one million people were born in Canada every year? The solution is not to have fewer immigrants. It is to build more available and affordable housing and to have regulations keeping developers and rental managers in check.
“ students “ everyone knows it’s a scam
Much more restrictive limits should be placed on all immigration, refugees, so called "temporary" workers and permanent residents. The massive increases in newcomers of all kinds have seriously destabilized Canada. The numbers have overwhelmed our housing, health care, education and social support systems and created increased social tensions. Consider the unaffordable tax increases being faced by Toronto homeowners who are now being forced to pay for the cost of supporting a massive influx of refugees sanctioned by our government
you're wrong but sure ok, we had these problems b4 the added immigrants, healthcare is being dismantled on purpose by conservative premiers to vet in privatization,
Consider that high immigration has been the backbone of Canada's economic growth and prosperity. Without young educated workers we'd be a country of retirees.
@@spikygreenpretty much, also working immigrants pay into the tax system and cpp pensions which is why the seniors in canada can now get a measly 1200 a month of pension. My mom gets that in her home country as her pension.

I am a current international student. I think this policy actually benefits those who are in more prestigous study programs and want to stay after their degrees.
Cutting down numbers of people coming in on "diploma mill" sponsorship would mean more opportunities in job and pr for those who are studying in legitimate insititutions.
Plus hopefully quicker visa processing times for legitimate international students too.
Real policy impact remains to be seen, but I certainly hope my assessment is right.
Exactly. I agree. It's to be honest annoying to have a Computer Science degree from UBC and dealing with so many hassles for something that was originally intended to be Canada's signature in a smooth mutually-benefiting pathway for immigration of skills & talents worldwide to the nation. Wth is up with 20,000 international students to these random institutions? They're just filling up the pool of potential valuable immigrants by making Canadian education have no meaning.
@@sarpsays brah we in same uni
Also an international student here, finishing my 4th year and getting my degree really soon. I actually almost went to college and am very grateful that I ended up choosing university. While I sympathize with other international students navigating this whole journey, I do feel that some students at some colleges contribute to a frustrating work environment because of their absence from classes and participation. Other people paid good money to come and learn and while I understand that some students may have to work to make a living, it doesn't mean that other people should have the bear the consequences, there are group works involved and I have heard horror stories about students never attending classes. I remain hopeful that these changes will benefit both legitimate international students and Canadians alike but we'll have to wait and see. Best of luck to you both!
The institutions should be more diligent in fulfilling their duties as designted study institutions and report significant gaps to IRCC, but they are apparently not doing it. They are pure profit driver diploma mills and they create a situation where no one wins: legit students cannot learn, students with alterior motives pay huge money, and over blown number of study permit holders means less opportunities for others. It's sad really such institutions are allowed to give empty promises to their international student bases.@@nunnil1655

Very simple way to solve this is to have conditional acceptance with no work permit after graduation and you will see the numbers will cut in half.

It's about time! Over 50% of Georgian College students are international students. When locals apply, they are told the course is full.

The cap should be permanently set so Canada only welcomes students who are here to study. Cap the hours they can work at, say, 15 per week, ensure the students have the money to pay their tuition when they come, and make it clear that being a student is not a path to citizenship.
Although I agree that being a student should not be a path to citizenship, we do want them to stay and contribute after they completed their educations. So I would say just make it harder to get citizenship.

So comical how EVERYONE can now talk openly about this Immigration problem when anyone even whispering this issue 2 years ago was deemed a major racist. I've seen people lose their jobs from openly talking about this subject.
Unfortunately people do use it to be racist and everyone else gets lumped in with that. I support the idea of people from all kinds of places coming to Canada to make their lives better, but people have been abusing the system and the government took way too long to regulate it. The damage is done not only on the economy, etc., but also the Canadian people's will to lend out a helping hand
I am an immigrant to be honest what i loved about Canda was diversity but to go to my school and see 85% Indians and go to most places are Indians its to much. Don't cap just diversity immigrants coming in. Bzw most of the Indians in my school they are working and using other people SIN lot of illegal aciticty they are doing.

Eventually, when these students all get their PRs...they will sponsor their families and settle, adding so much burden to the taxpayers because of healthcare, foodbanks, and other subsidized services.
Absolutely.
You act like these PR residents won’t be paying their fair share of taxes. How do you know that they wont be the ones making bank and becoming big taxpayers?
lol you do realize these people already pay taxes and will continue to pay taxes after getting PR right??
The main goal for the students is just getting their pr and bringing there parents to Canada no one really comes to study they just come to work even if they work at time Hortons and make 12 dollars a hr or become general manager at Tim Hortons. The general manager can make up to 18$ that $720 dollars after taxes that will be like 500 something most dont make that much back home .. they work and pay of there study fees but manly there main goals is to get a pr and buy a house . They just but more of a burden on the healthcare system . Most students all move to Toronto Brampton they are becoming a nightmare

All these politicians are responsible for this current mess.
Canada should not be responsible for education of the world while failing our own youth.
Canada should not fund foreign wars, give away money, and let in many international people, especially when the country's economy is basically on life support and our own citizens/people can't afford the current economy.

Great. This should be done because schools are taking advantage of them. But now this will mean that either domestic students have to pay the real costs of their education, or the fed and prov govts will have to pony up more cash. It also won't be long until people see this won't make a dent in the housing crisis as the majority of these students are 3-4 to a tiny apartment. This will allow us to address the real issue, there is no profit in starter homes. In my area all the sfhs being built are McMansions starting at 700k, and luxury condos.

Here in Canada I have heard of students from India going to food banks to save money but then send videos back home bragging about how easily they get away with stuff. And what about the money university administration has in trust. A chancellor being let go but because their term wasn't finished they get a lump sum payment of hundreds of thousands and then a nice pension.. individual teachers are a class of their own. Then you have class distinctions where some groups are violent towards other groups. Female students' Union being aggressive towards male students. There are a lot of things going on but no one is talking about how much money a university will make over the backs of their students. How can a university charge 50.000$ to any student and then that student isn't working in their preferred job. Having a degree in a talking subject like HR. How does that prepare you for future achievements while working in your field. I also heard that many of these protesters from university are being paid lots of money and are convinced that it's for a good cause. I'm sorry but we should never be educating young people from third world countries while failing to properly educating our own youth.
They need to put a cap on international students. Local fresh graduates here have a hard time getting jobs because a lot of those international students already have experience in their field, it's very difficult to compete with people who already have experience. Most of my international classmates got a job right after school whereas we local students are still jobless after a year of graduating. This liberal party is creating too many problems for us Canadians.
The Liberals are culpable, for sure, but education is provincial. Queen's Park pays just over half of what other provinces pay for colleges. Y/our tax cuts at work.

@@hujinom I don't need to defend myself, I am a very hard worker. Speaking of hard workers, if you are going to tell me that East Indians are hard workers than i think you need to give your head a shake.
@@cityboyis2more intelligent than you no doubt
@@therightmedico6223 don't you mean more corrupt.
@@hujinomI worked with a lot of these “students” and they were far from the hardest workers there, in experience they made things way more difficult. And often made teams with other “students” to gang up on, and talk smack to Canadians in their language. 3 different different workplaces i seen this happen.
And hiring more refugees YES! Way to go Canada!
people think immigration is the root cause. yes, students had to be capped off, but you cant deny the fact that if immigration wasnt open for the time it was this country wouldve been a country of retirees. So yeah since there are 2 sides of the same coin so is with immigration. we need to function as a united country and not bash the immigrants alone, i know a lot of immigrants who are very hardworking too.
A "United" country is not a country made of foreigners
Large number of international students, refugees, and immigrants without proper thought and preparation equals disaster. It's time to recognize that letting in so many non-Canadians is causing undue burden and problems in the system.
pls get these people out of brampton next
The system has been broken for a long time, look at dorm rooms. foreign students will study for a business degree to take advantage of the heavy discounted cost of living in a dorm vs renting. Then work a full time job. I am not against immigration but we need skilled workers not another Walmart employee
Political Science 101 - Create the problem, wait for the reaction, offer the solution (using our tax dollars).
Close the borders on ALL counts - students, immigrants, and so-called refugees... Actual Canadians are homeless, sleeping in tents and cars. This is insanity!
365 k per year still a lot...
Crisis response is no replacement for good governance
Honestly. $1300+ for a room with a hot plate in a 'shared house' is the majority listing I can see for single dwelling rentals in Vancouver at this time. The massive influx of international students has disrupted the housing market as well. Forget finding anything affordable that's if you're single and not a student.
They dont go home
I know students from India who came here to work three jobs just to send money back home.
2 years? Should be 20 years.
Classrooms are like little Punjabs or Little Chinas.
Too late.
