Why didn't the Universities and Colleges build housing for all these International students and charge them rent, additional income

My family came from Canada from India over 100 years ago we came over here legally we tried to assimilate I think what really bothers me now is that these new international students are giving all of us a bad name most of them cheat on their English exams back in India, and this is a known fact most of them can’t speak English and hence why they fail the colleges here expecting to be passed automatically. they work over 40 hours a week illegally and lie about it The government is subsidizing international students but they are taking jobs away from our students. We paid taxes my entire life and my son applied for over 100 jobs and got nothing because every single job is taken over by international students they are they are abrasive. They are entitled, they cannot seem to understand how assimilation works. They are so entitled and they feel they can protest out in the streets when they dont get PR. They came on a student visa and were expected to go home. They are now complaining and protesting at this point they all need to be sent home because this is ridiculous, PR should be handed out as needed not automatically and right now there are so many Canadians without jobs so we don’t need more workers. I also work in healthcare most of the students or their families come in don’t have appropriate healthcare and we end up paying millions of dollars in healthcare bills because of them, we have had families come visit their international students with no healthcare having strokes costing us healthcare workers and the government over $1 million. We don’t have the infrastructure for these students to stop. The government needs to stop subsidizing. The government needs to stop handing out PR like they’re handing out candyscamin India and here charged enough is enough. I will def be writing to my politician

Forign students dont need work visas and should be able to support themselves while there attending colleges

Why there are lobby groups in universities and colleges? If not stop not they will become like zionists lobby groups in US they control all politicians and the president

You want to make $$$ millions of dollars $$ every year? ... As far back into the 80's the United States made it known that we want educated immigrants to come to the United States. ... Okay I am not making money by this, but I sure would like a piece of the pie. ... When the Covid hit the Colleges ... Most colleges closed down and many graduates who were here, as far back as the 80's were asked to vacate college properties. ... Many were asked to go back to their home countries and for many they didn't even know anything about their home countries. As graduate students and Professor assistants - working on research programs - have lived in the United States most of their lives. ... The demand for highly educated immigrants has caused a paper blog. ... The demand for immigration visas to work or get into the universe's research has skyrocketed. ... So much the waiting list can be from 5 years to 60 years - depending on the country of origin. ... Many immigrants believe coming from Canada with a Canadian visa is the short cut ( they are being coached to this idea ) because universes and private research groups need their talents... ( We have noticed that many immigrants are paying College Degree Mills for fake made up degrees and college credit records ) ... If that's the case we can do the same for American kids with a High school degree ... But individuals tied up with the Colleges and private research groups would lose all that money they have invested in luxury condos that they rent out to all those immigrants. ... I would love to design and build luxury high rise condos around colleges and universities and get filthy rich renting out to immigrants. ... Many who got rich backers from their home countries. ... And that includes student spies coming from communist countries and or communist allies. ... Don't forget my finders fee ... That I use to educate red-blooded American kids as well as promoting them to get involved face-to-face with the Civil Air Patrol and or United States Coast Guard Axcellery.

Go home, our PM Mr. T. Need refuges, so he can win next election.\nThis students runs economy. This student pay higher fees in colleges and universities.\nNo, we need more refugees, we will making UK

CRIMINAL$!!! SAME EDUCATIONAL SCEME GOING ON IN THE US. US CITIZENS AND CANADIANS CANNOT GET ENROLLMENT IN BASIC COLLEGE BECAUSE OF FOREIGN STUDENT AT THE TOP OF ACCEPTANCE ALL IN THE NAME OF MONEY!!! CRIMINALS RUNNING EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS!!!

When I was in college, Indian students were my nightmares for group work. Many of them kept silence until the previous day of deadline, and said they wanted to take part; some others would say at the beginning that they needed to work in the day so they had very limited time for the work and brazenly begged to slack off. Thanks to the assistance of AI, I was able to finish the whole project on my own and told them f**k off in the last minutes.

In the US, a college education (4year) starts at $150 thousand. Most US or foreign student graduate with a student loan over $250 (US) thousand. Every one is is the same predicament. And we all struggling to get an education and pay our way through life - YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL!! Follow the rules!!!

Canada sucked three times tuition fees from them so the politicians and corrupt college owners can buy luxury houses and vacations in resorts, its time to 100% refund and deport all

Conestoga college? All indian students go there?

Pl learn good Practices from Gavin Berry , u did a good job, proper Journalist stuff, without any pre conceive notion. Balanced job , show all sides of the coins not only one side. I guess Tru North n Rebel made tht mistake which u did not. U Called spade is spade, be it a federal govt, provincial govt, colleges, agents or students anyone who is at real fault to begin with

Jobs are short in Canada ?? Canadian children went to university and college to study and when graduates they can not find jobs.

Many International students at colleges and universities weren't studying. They worked excessive hours and failed all their courses. Citizenship is a privilege, not a right

I worked in a college that admits international students. Many of them came here with fradulent documents and cannot speak English trying every possible way to cheat and exploit any system. I am an economic immigrant and I feel betrayed.

That’s excellent hopefully Canada will become Canadian again. As a Punjabi, I’m absolutely disgusted with these new international students. They came here on pretence most of them didn’t even pass the English test they cheated and scammed to get here. They’re not attending colleges and working full-time taking jobs away from Canadian born students, including my own son who applied for over 100 jobs and got nothing. They need to go back after studying what’s deplorable is their sense of entitlement now, I’m so embarrassed by them. I think if PR is granted they should be made to work and areas that require help not already overpopulated areas least 10 years

Shut down the dubious colleges. Simple as that.

just accept the college fees that immigrats pay for this process is what government is after

Our children have no seats in colleges because of the foreign students

They never answer the questions! How can the be accepted by colleges here with such logic and reasoning skills.

All these foreign students should simply stop coming to Canada. The entire tertiary education system would collapse. These colleges and university have been gouging these foreign students for years. This at its core has nothing to do with jobs. it is xenophobia. The white Canadian's are seeing too many colored people and it scares them. White kids dont want to work at Tim Hortons for minimum wage. The economy needs these immigrants more than anything. Do you have any idea of the amount of taxes these immigrants pay annually? It really is a sad situation. But the effects will be even worse when these tax inflows cease. Prepare for job cuts and tax hikes.

its because of the Illiterate freeloaders coming from 8°4'N and 37°6'N latitudes......\n and the illegal means they use to gain visas into the western countries - like fake credentials, fake college and school degrees, fake bank statements , accounts and fake/ trumped up assets, ...and then when they get into the said western countries - they all end up with a begging bowl at the nearest welfare centre.

Well, Brian, if you think that Canada has been overrun with interlopers swarming into your country then take into consideration what it’s like here in Australia. In January 2014, there were 540,000 people in Australia on an education visa. But by December 2019, this number had skyrocketed to be 955,000. Due to the emergence of Covid early in 2020, culminated with the number of ISs in Australia being reduced to 700,000 by the end of April, which obviously remained static until the borders were reopened on Nov 3, 2021. \n \nIn the ensuing 6 months under the incumbent LNP government, until it lost office to Labor early in May, there would be a net-increase of 120,000 ISs in Australia, totaling around 810,000. But in the ensuing 2 years under labor the net-increase the number of ISs peaked at a nudge over one million interlopers here at 1,055,000. \n \nThis number is broken down to be 750,000 students enrolled in tertiary courses; 200,000 undertaking vocational education training [VET/TAFE] courses; 70,000 in English training colleges, and the rest are enrolled in primary and secondary schools. Apropos to VET/TAFE these courses entail very dodgy activities from fashion design and decorating abodes to cooking/catering. The VAST percentage of people enrolled in the later categories, which accrues to being about 75% of theses facets are from India and the Subcontinent. \n \nIn order to demonstrate just how much Australia has OVERDOSED on ISs at tertiary levels is to compare the 750,000 studying here in comparison to the US, which has a tad UNDER 1.3 million foreigners in comparable institutions. So, considering the US has a population (which doesn’t include the 15 million illegals) THIRTEEN TIMES that of Australia means that it should have at LEAST nine million foreigners studying in its dominions to be on-par with Australia.

@13:45 Why the 15% decline in Canadian students in college in Ontario between 2012 and 2020, after Trudeau Liberals declared a shortage of skilled workers 2015 (really? no not really). Decades of layoffs of Canadian skilled workers since the 2000's and outsourcing to India and other countries.

Include the visitors from mainly Punjabis and Indians that received working letters to work while on vactions. Never knew such bully immigratiin existed.\n\nOur knowledge is that when a person or persons enter Canada for vacation, NOT TO APPLY FOR WORKING PERMITS.\n\nSO BASICALLY, THEY WERE IN CANADA TAKING CANADIANS JOBS.\n\nTHESE PEOPLE WEEW NOT COMING FOR A VACATION, THEY MAIN GOAL WAS TO WORK.\n\nTHE INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS FROM.INDIA AND PUNJABIS HAD NO PLANS TO ATTEND COLLEGES FOR STUDYING IT WAS ALL ABOUT WORKING OVER 40 HOURS PER WEEK.\n\nTHE INTERNATIONAL FROM INDIA AND PUNJAB THAT ENTER CANADA WITH FAKE STUDENTS VISA, FAKE COLLEGES, FAKE WORKING PERMITS.\n\nTHE FAKE IMMIGRATION CONSULTANTS, STUDENTS AND THEIR PARENTS WHO WERE ALL INVOLVED IN THE IMMIGRATION FRAUD SHOULD BE ALL DEPORTED TO MOSTLY INDIA, PUNJABI AND OTHER NATIONALITIES.\n\n\nTHEY DISRESPECTED CANADA IMMIGRATION RULES AND REGULATIONS.\n\n\nTHEY ALL MUST BE MADE AN EXAMPLE FOR THE OTHER FRAUDERS OF CANADA IMMIGRATION.

Canada and needs to closes half of universities and collages, because these colleges and universities are running like for business.

Are the universities and colleges here to provide education for Canadians first or to make money from International students. They should never rely on international students in the first place to begin with. This is called scamming the general Canadian population, a racket. All these so called universities and colleges provide you with useless degrees and diplomas and you can’t even land a decent job.

Children born in Canada they have to pay back to the government one time they finished universities or college, Tim Horton or gas station they don't like to hire another nationality only Indian people Canada is multicultural country

They came in with dreams of becoming permanent residents. They paid thousands of their life savings for a better life. They were shown a way on how to become a permanent residents and now they are told too bad get lost. Trudeau really f’d them up by allowing every low skilled worker from India. Universities and colleges really loved these guys!

Thanks for true representation of truth\n\n and scams and exploitation done by canadians colleges and universities

David,\n\nYiu need to understand the scam happening right under the nose of govt of Canada in the name of fake colleges getting Punjabi sikh students to Canada. \n\nNo doubt that these students, mainly Sikhs from Punjab, are definitely wrong and don't qualify for the residency but so is the govt of Canada's politicians.\n\nThese students must go back and sue the agents who cheated them by selling the useless courses with an assurance of residency upon completion.

Why not get into start up space and get an equity partnership as a college.

You should make special video for Conestogo college in kitchener , ninety five percent of student from india

Canadian Universities have no right to demand anything! CEOs and other execs need to drop down their salaries by a lot. We should have a cap on that. Don't base Canadian's right to education on immigrants, we know that model doesn't work. That has destroyed affordability and all for your relentless greed. We need more Canadians at college, less tuition fees, more federal money into the system and less internacional students. Your model is unsustainable and it was about time for that cash cow madness to come to an end. By the way, we also need to crack down on those fake colleges and outlet diploma mills. Post secondary education is a mess and it should be cleaned up real good.

We are in this situation because we were too dependent on international students, particularly those coming to colleges. If you are unable to run them, then just shut them down, only the best will remain…

These Colleges and Universities (like governments) need to streamline their operations in order to reduce costs.\nMy daughter is in her second year of College and the amount of waste and bureaucracy that exists now, is far worse than what it was when I went to College in the 90's.|

Well, if international students and the 7:1 ratio of fee structure is the main source of survival for these universities and colleges then its a clear indication that these universities and colleges are on ventilators. It would be better to manage and find ways of self reliance without the dependency on international students or shut them down.

Conestoga college is a diploma mill .

Only in Canada, Temp Foreign student = Economic migrant! When it comes to colleges, they are super happy and making a ton of $$$ with their triple tuition, main while the liberals increase their taxing and voter pool of minimum wage workers, Mega corporations do whatever they want and never have to provide a raise. Everybody wins, except for the average Canadian whom wants to wok and raise his/her family in peace & in their own home. Now a mission impossible. Thanks F.J.T / He will never be able to fix this Mayhem. They better start sending these ppl home after graduation. No work permit, No PR !

What about asylum seekers also entering no one is talking about! Tax rebate for asylum seekers! College made money and government made money! People travelling on tourist visa and applying for jobs ! This government is working for outsiders not for Canadian people. Kids of hardworking Canadian not getting jobs.LMIA scam also big issue employers making money in cash. Tim Hortons issuing 2000 plus lmia no one is talking about! Immigration consultant also responsible for this mess.

wait for the universities and colleges to go begging for all governments to help them make up the difference

these people can't live like everybody else. college is fake. documents are fake.pasport is fake. school is fake.

The Canadian visa system has been scammed by unscrupulous travel agents from Punjab and Gujarat. Its a mystery as to how illiterate villagers join Canadian colleges and get PR. The failed immigration system is answerable to the voters and taxpayers. Stop this scam. Deport the students who have done their course. PR is not a natural process after college.

No Canadian students study these type of college. I am hearing these names are first time.

Canadian colleges advertise in india claiming you can stay on a government given work permit after your studies, but what happens is a shock when hopes and dreams of students are shattered when that is cancelled after they are here

These colleges brought in international students on made up courses and made billions. However, all these students staying back caused housing crisis and unemployment to Canadians.

The government got greedy and are getting a kick back from all the universities and colleges for letting in so many of them to enroll in these bogus schools. The government also knows they can benefit from all of the money these international students are bringing in. The international students are a cash cow for the government.

Good should go down 100% college and universities spoiled by the foreign student program.

Institutions like colleges and universities should become a nonprofit organization to prevent corporate greed.

At least universities have higher acceptance standards compared to college
