Analysing Canada's tightening immigration policies: A closer look at student visas
Canada has tightened its immigration policies for international students, including a new cap on study permits, stricter Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) criteria, and a provincial attestation requirement. The suspension of the Student Direct Stream (SDS) programme and reduced work hours highlight the government's effort to regulate rising student numbers. While the changes address housing, public services, and job market pressures, they have caused uncertainty among students, particularly from India, prompting calls for clearer communication and better support.
