International students in Canada, here the “squeeze”

TORONTO – Canada will reduce the number of international student permits by 35 per cent as part of “a temporary two-year cap on foreign enrollments,” Federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller announced this morning. The cap will reduce the number of approved study permits in 2024 to 364,000, while the 2025 limit will be re-evaluated at the end of this year. Students enrolling in master’s and research doctorates will be exempt from the cap. “These are the bright people we need to retain instead,” Miller said, adding that doing so will allow them to decisively confront the institutions and “bad actors” who have to pay exorbitant tuition fees to international students.
