  • According to the province, 175,000 international students, coming from more than 150 different countries study at public and private colleges. That number is set to drop following Ottawa's new two-year cap on international student study permits. B.C. Post-Secondary Education Minister Selina Robinson has found instances of what she called “poor-quality education” and a lack of instructors. Our Jon Hernandez went out to learn more from the very people at the heart of this story - students.

      @@nazoko5 You haven't clued in yet that these international students (this one specific demographic) are gaming the system. They are willing to pay that increased tuition because the human trafficking rings that bring them here and register them in these programs are already putting them in heavy debt ($70,000 seems to be the average). They get into these school programs to gain permanent residency (citizenship), that's the reason, not because they plan to integrate and be productive for society. And then we have stupid politicians like Eby who remove that barrier and straight up allows them to work just for being a student, essentially giving them permanent residency just for arriving here. So now the pressure on gentrifying housing and the job market becomes even greater, not to mention that they take up seats in school programs that they have no real reason to complete anymore, just so they can get a job and pay off their debt and send our wealth back to their real homes.

    Until 2020 (pandemic), most Canadians would have proudly & quickly said Canada is a great place. For multiple generations (young & old). It still is in many ways. But like all countries, a bunch of things have made life more difficult lately.
    During the Covid lockdowns, many people in apartments (or major cities) went nuts wanting to buy homes everywhere (urban & rural). Increasing demand and rising prices. Not long after, inflation caused mortgage rates especially to rise. Rent costs have soared too.
    People interested in working in hospitals declined. Less doctors etc..
    Simultaneously in Cda, the number of people coming by air, land and boat to claim asylum SKYROCKETED. For example, in 2023 alone, in just one region (Ontario) around 275 people arrived per day (on average). Ditto for other populated provinces. Also the number of international students skyrocketed too. Averaging around 1,096 per day in 2023 alone.
    Hospitals then hit with many wanting free healthcare. Less drs/nurses etc., means greater waiting times.
    A severe housing crisis has occurred in many western countries including in Canada. In ways not seen in people's lifetimes.
    Almost all humans trying to migrate to Canada have been from South Asia. And it's become extremely obvious to Canadians. Even those that are very used to much diversity & many cultures.
    Unfortunately not all players have acted honestly over the years. False asylum claims. Foreign 'agents' deceiving students for $. Plus some Canadians, a portion with ties overseas, became greedy and started doing things to make $ off of people's desperation.
    Then this year throw in all the Palestinian vs Israeli angry protests happening regularly in cities. Plus the Sikh vs Hindu violence/extortion happening in Ontario and BC. All stemming from affairs in the Asian continent. Hate crimes went from rare to occasional.
    Canadians are not used to all this. So many, who have embraced multi-culturalism and immigration for decades are now worried and fearful (due to all of the above). And all are praying it doesn't turn into great anger (like in the USA).
    Canadians want multi-culturism to succeed ... and for all people to be okay. Everyone I know is HAPPY with Canada Immigration's recent changes. INCLUDING multi-generation long-term Asian Canadians.
