Canada has announced a significant reduction in the issuance of international student visas in an effort to solve the housing crisis and resource allocation issues.
According to a news statement from the Canadian government, with the number of international students approaching 360,000, the government aims to stabilize overall growth while maintaining the integrity of the education system and key services.
International students play an important part in improving Canada’s social, cultural, and economic landscape. However, concerns have been raised as a result of colleges aggressively expanding admissions in order to increase revenue, resulting in students entering the nation without necessary resources. This inflow has put a pressure on housing, healthcare, and other essential services.
