A Cap? No weed need a full pause. 350k year is still wayyyy to much.

cap on international students who pay for everything and contribute to economy but no cap on refugees that have no contribution to economy?

Will he be announcing a cap on his spending on vacations and funding his criminal friends?

A 35% cap on international students will do NOTHING to fix the situation, far too little, far too late, JT is STILL bringing in RECORD NUMBERS OF IMMIGRANTS.

From this issue alone, I come to understanding that Canadian government is quite reactive to situations. Aren't they supposed to foresee the housing and cost of living crisis and put the cap way before it's become the issue? I agree that there are benefits of immigration for Canada but uncontrollable migrations only makes Canada worse.

Canadians don’t want a 2 year cap, we want a deportation blitz and a 30+ year ban on all immigration, asylum seekers and student/worker permits. We also want better pay with hours and benefits, labour shortage solved!

I was born here in canada but my mom immigrated. Took her 20 years almost to get full citizenship . \nThe cap is needed . These past 5 years has been honestly out of control . \nI've personally worked jobs where international students knew exactly how to work the system . \nEven working directly with employers to bank hours so that they can go full-time during summer yet still get paid for the whole year as part time so the government doesn't see that they pass there maximum hours worked . \nThe access to credit aswell is super scary .

I'm all for capping immigration. But are we capping the wrong ones............................................................? *looks at Roxham road*

So todays news they said the are putting a cap on the students but they should also put a cap on immigration, maybe like 300,000 per year or less.

I feel like immigration needs to have a cap too

Canada was built by immigrants no doubt. When Canadians are unwilling to do the low pay hard labour, and give birth to kids, there has to be immigrants to fill the gap. Housing crisis is the elephant in the room, it has been around for quite a while. Remember one decade ago in Vancouver #donthaveonrmillion? Its worse now. International students became easy solution/target for politicians to blame because they cannot vote. They were considered as solution of labour shortage back during Covid then there was a labour shortage. Sean Fraser the minister of immigration back then made it super easy for international students to stay in Canada permanently. When he takes the office of Minister of Housing, he starts to point fingers to those students. Who let them into this country in the first place? We need more roads more houses. IRCC needs to work faster to get more skilled workers doctors into the country. Putting a cap on current immigration level is not a good idea.

Canada is not proactively expanding our infrastructure and social services to accommodate this unnatural population growth. There needs to be a hard cap on immigration till Canada can address the current needs then start working on increasing capacity up until the point we are ready to reopen Canada to immigration.

colleges & universities are scamming these international students. most of them drop out, and the language barrier is insane. its sad. there has to be a cap.

The reliance on tuition dollars to cover basic operational costs is an inevitable result of decades of government austerity policies that have systematically gutted the post-secondary and other public sectors. The disparity between domestic and international tuition costs followed, a disparity that has been gradually increasing as universities find themselves in increasingly desperate financial situations - with limited sources of revenue. If direct government payments were increased to pre-1990 levels (and I would be willing to bet that most Canadians would approve of their tax dollars supporting education and training programs for Canadians), it would allow universities and colleges to manage their finances without disproportionate reliance on tuition - in particular international tuition. Bottom line - resuming adequate and equitable funding for post-secondary education must be front of mind while discussing the implications of lack of housing for international students. The point about cuts to public funding is underplayed and not well-contextualized in this CBC analysis - which just barrels on to band-aid fixes (like capping numbers or building more housing). The funding model itself needs to be fixed. Let's change the model from provincial to a provincial/federal hybrid funding model. And while we're at it, let's revise the funding model for healthcare. Why not do a sequel segment on that.

Capping international students is good and all but i'm sure people will just come on visitor visa instead

Do you want to end up as England???? Canada is vast compared with England but that vastness is mostly barren.So big Cities here we go.\nThey need to put a cap on immigration /and asylum seekers. It already is out of control…. look at the people living on the streets ??? \nPeople who are working night & day find it hard to make ends meet. So where are we , what is the expectation? We are heading to Disaster I feel with this volume of people coming in,and all their family tag on’s….. Ridiculous Government..

Why are these international students getting bashed for working delivery, grocery, security jobs? How do you expect a student to be a working as an engineer/doctor/ manager while attending college? Students work for the minimum wage coz they are the only jobs which allows to pick their own schedule. I’ve seen many attending colleges and doing these jobs part time to support their tuition. Moreover, fed govt has increased the student visa work hours cap from 20 to 40 hrs. There is dignity in all kinds of labor.

How on earth is there no cap on international student intake? Why is Canadian govt so very poor with planning?

Cap international students at the colleges that are diploma mills

Yall aint wanna see a surge in labour cost when they put a cap on internation students or immigration

This is a problem and a cap is warranted. Unfortunately, a cap will likely also mean higher domestic tuition fees as the schools scramble to make up for the loss of as many higher tuition paying international students

4:10 yea I wish our immigration had levels and caps, its not just the students that come in unfettered

You think they’ll just cut off 20 billion dollars of their income? Ontario makes 2Billion and according to CBC that’s more than what the govt allocates to them. Haha. Jokes. I came here as a PR and I feel like the solution is to put a cap on the number of students, increase ielts cut off and give each province a number of max students allowed.

Solution is simple. Let Universities house their international students in student housing. Thats your cap. If they dont want to build student housing for their money tree puppy mill, dont let them have the international students.

They need to get rid of those consultants back in foreign countries who misguide kids to take up useless courses in those shady colleges. College/Universities needs to prequalify students before admitting them to a particular course and by that way it’s easy to filter out candidates based on the current job requirements. Having a territorial cap is just a smokescreen by liberals. Canadian economy doesn’t need more sandwich makers or food delivery drivers, be it be in Saskatchewan or Manitoba. Territorial cap is actually gonna backfire because it shuts doors to intellectual kids who would foster innovation and drive the economy. \n\nWe need politicians who could think logically and voters who promotes those !

Stop capping our resource sectors so much , start ramping up the procurement and processing of those resources . Our processes are way more eco friendly than the other main international providers . It would help drastically reduce emissions from non eco friendly sources while providing our economy with the huge boom it needs to upgrade our housing production and infrastructure. Look at the real stats on our worldwide emissions... Canadas emissions are a tiny blip of the worldwide emissions ... our government acts like we're this massive air pollutant scourge and we just aren't. We can go net zero pretty fast of we stop stepping all over our energy and resource sectors ... then immigration would be supportable ...

What is the point of not setting a cap based on nationality? Let s be honest. 90% of international students are from India. If they do not come, others will come. Money is money. 99.9% of Indians come to Canada on study permit not to study but to work full time harming other international students from other countries. They come to class for the first few weeks and once they get team mates for team work assignments, they suddenly banish and never show up again. IT IS RUDE. They never speak English. Their stardards are far below CANADIAN STANDARDS. Why keep getting them in? Again. Money is money. Just limit based on nationality on study permit and later pr as well.

it's an open secret globally that the student visa is the fast track to PR in Canada.. time to close this loophole and severely cap student visas!!

Cap the low-quality, pay-for-diploma colleges and further support the high-quality productivity producing universities! It's great to know that's the direction the government is moving towards!

Here is an easy solution, that will get rid of diploma mills, limit the number of international students to a ratio of domestic students and then put in a minimum threshold. For example, Minimum of 10k domestic students before you can accept international applicants, then limit the applicants to up to only 5% of the total students, this cap increases for schools that have more domestic students. Therefore, legitimate university can still attract legitimate international talent. Diploma mills that no domestic Canadian student goes to can't even open up to scam international students. Easy fix government will never do it.

As an immigrant nurse myself, I am all for immigration and hoping for the success of all immigrants, BUT, there should be cap per college or university. Those sudden influx of students have detrimental effects to Canadians and residents especially with the housing crisis, and Healthcare crisis that we are experiencing right now..

I also think public funded universities need to have a cap on the amount of international students enrolled, Major Universities such as UOC favor taking international students then calgarians or Canadian students simply because they can charge them 3x as much in tuition

Why do the women dress this way but the men wear baseball caps and other attire?

love the cap

Why is the gentleman is wearing a cap writtern FREE. Does it mean he is FREE for more wives??

The cap says it all.

These people are completely delusional. I have travelled to so many Muslim countries and living conditionals are terrible, wages are very low. Also what is that cap….Free Palestine from what exactly? Palestine people have been driven out so many other countries due to their disruption.

I’m sure you gather a lot of positive attention when people see that “Free Palestine” cap. Glad to see you go.

Your cap say Palestine so go

As muslims, and wearing the Free Palestine cap, why dont you move to a Muslim country?

I just happen to come across your channel.. Being non muslim, I strongly feel you guys and all other muslims should confine to middle east. That is best for us and you. No malice here but this is the fact. The fact is we are v different people. You people do not belong here. And there was no need to don that cap. All the best!

Why are you wearing cap with FREE PALESTINE are you promoting divides among Humans that LORD ADONAI has created without any RELIGION.\n Become a Follower of JESUS CHRIST and you will be safe worldwide, even many Iranians are following JESUS CHRIST. Many are constantly having encounter with JESUS.\n Soon oneday you WILL have a wonderful encounter with JESUS CHRIST.\nAmen ❤️ Amen ❤️ Amen ❤️

that cap is a sign theres nothing under it

That's why Muslims should live in Muslim countries not live where Muslims want to change our life choices. And I know that it was hard for Jews to live in Muslim countries, that is not a debate. I have faced racism from Muslims, they can be very intimidating. This may not be your experience in the way you treat others but I have had different experiences. And I can see by the Free Palestine cap you wear that you are indocrinated into their narrative, which is don't tell the whole truth, only what is convenient. Most of that history is revisionist.

What’s with the free Palestine cap? Oh I get it, yeah it’s a horrible situation all around. For the Israelis and the Palestinians.

You lost me at ur cap

I see you have a nice fascist cap,nice you go from here.bye.

It would be easier to take you seriously if you were not wearing that T-shirt and baseball cap backwards. Grown men do not do that. You are not 10 years old anymore.\n\nWhere were you born? Vancouver is OK but the architecture is bland and repetitive, as you have correctly stated.\n\nCanada has a short history. One of the oldest major cities in Canada is Quebec City which was founded only in 1608.\n\nYou are right: health care here is NOT free! Far from it.\n\nCanadians and Americans cannot drink in public because their citizens are not mature enough to control their alcohol consumption.\n\nWhere did you move to? Portugal. OK. Have you been to Brazil?\n\n\nI guess you are well off, then. More power to you.

his cap:Free Palestine ??

Assalamualaikum Brother Will and Sister Sana. I am Kevin Omar Lopez Castellanos. I have donated and commented in the past. If you wish to move to a more Muslim-friendly environment, may I suggest the Islamic Community here in Atlanta, GA, USA? We're still in the process of growing but Alhamdulillah we have made great progress in the past few years. I am a student at Madina Institute in Duluth, GA studying under wonderful teachers who are students of Shaykh Muhammad bin Yahya Al-Ninowy. I am a convert of two years and have found myself flourishing as a Muslim here since I joined. There will be struggles and adjustments, no cap, but I love this community with my very soul. Shakyh Al-Ninowy has a campus in Canada but Atlanta is the headquarters. In my hometown, halal businesses and Muslim environments have grown. And there are programs here that can prove very beneficial for your children Insha'Allah. And if you need someone to introduce you, myself and the Madina family will welcome you with open arms Insha'Allah. And if not Atlanta, Madina has other campuses in the US (Milwaukee & Little Rock). We also have campuses in South Africa, Malaysia, India, UK, and Norway.
