Canada's international student spike was blamed on private colleges. Here's what really happened

https://old.reddit.com/r/canada/comments/1b1co0n/canadas_international_student_spike_was_blamed_on/

Of the 30 Canadian colleges and universities granted the most international study permits last year, all but one are public.

lol, apparently the "college mill" idea wasn't accurate, as the strip mall colleges don't make up close to as many international student numbers as public schools.

These are permits in 2023 alone. How do you even fit 30k indians in one school? I don't even think my uni has 30k students total.


From the comments on reddit:

Was just in Cape Breton twice this year after 5 years away. There is a huge change in the population. It felt like 50% of the service industry workers I was helped by were international students primarily from India. Most people I spoke with feel badly for the students who are being lied to by the University about job and housing possibilities in Cape Breton. There have never been lots of jobs in Cape Breton. Never, ever. They are angry with local politicians and the University for this big cash grab.

A flight I was on in Jan. arrived from Toronto at 2am and the University had a table set up with a person yelling for the students on the flight to come to him. He was near baggage pick-up and was guiding them on their next steps and what forms they needed etc. About a third of the flight appeared to be students (maybe 20-30 people-the flight was not full) from mainly India and some from African nations.

It all felt very urgent and like people were being pushed through an assembly line. Not the kindness you'll often feel in Cape Breton.

:marseyeyeroll2: why do people pretend that the biggest issue is that indians were "sold a lie"? we all know you're just sick of seeing poos everywhere.

Cape Breton is basically India it's fricked

darn, looks like nowhere is safe from the brown menace. All the way in the east coast? Wouldn't be surprised if there were indian sightings in Alert at this point

It's crazy how many young East Injuns there are in CB now. I do a lot of hiking in the Cape Breton Highlands (see my profile pic!), and I've gotten in the habit of throwing a couple of big plastic garbage bags in my pack, because I keep encountering Indian students way back in the bush who aren't wearing jackets. I've twice given away my bags as makeshift ponchos, as if you've ever been to CB you know it's a very wet and windy place, and you can easily get hypothermia even when it's well above freezing.

Put a bunch of masala in the bag and they will jam their own heads in like how racoons get stuck in peanut butter jars

Canada is like 1/3 East Indian now I'm pretty sure. It's crazy but eh you could do worse for migrants I guess

I like the food and the women are pretty hot. Some of the men need to bathe more often, though.... jfc

(And no, it's not just the spices. I too eat loads of turmeric, corriander, cumin, onions, garlic, etc, but I bathe daily, so I don't smell like a hobo's asscrack)

The women are not hot whatsoever, they're just as filthy as the men

Dravidian chicks look kinda like Ewoks.

Are you trying to say Ewoks aren't hot?
