What will make talented students come to Canada? A handful of decent colleges can't do what Harvard, Stanford, etc have done. There's no economic engine bringing in talent and successfully retain it. If someone came to study well and graduates, what is Canada going to offer them? A graduate from Tier 2 college that worked as an intern on a product of mine got a $70k job offer while he's in their 3 year. Why would that dude not live off on $7k/yr COL save $50k while having access to a far better economy than Canada? The same person will grow to a $150k+ job in 5 years in India.Thankfully it is being done at least now. We may see a real genuine students coming here to upskill rather than driving on car roof, playing loud music and irritating neighbors, mocking ppl for not speaking Hindi/Punjabi, college brawls (very common in Brampton), sword fights, 10 to 12 dudes in a basement, the shitty SOWP, and all these things will/shud gradually cease to exist
Most of the good folks I know, already make ~$200-300k/yr in India. We get job offers from EU, Canada most decline those lowballers. It is getting to a point where I see if it is a Canadian/EU company, not even worth talking to them.
Canada is at best a place for bunch of mediocres who cracked shit easy IELTS and now think they are the shit on policy making or these students. If someone is talented, they'll have to have a strong reason to move to Canada right now. Most of the time, talented people move because they no longer can live back home(e.g. lack of freedom) or delusional to buy a lifestyle that doesn't exist.
