"We were recently told that our plan has been accepted by federal government authorities and that we are recognized as being ready to help students return to Canada safely."
It's literally mentioned in the email that they are approved. The DLI status will get updated around the 20th of this month
As I said, only IRCC can confirm bthe status, so we must wait till IRCC publish the official list. IRCC press release stated 8th October for publication of list, 20th October for rules change. No confirmation yet that study permits on hold since 18th march will finally be approved or that 18th march rule barring travel of those few who did get study permit approval after 18 march will be lifted.

That is not proof of covid readiness status. That is a description of the letter given in last few months to those students who were able to travel to confirm studies are essential.etc. and if what the university has done, until the official list comes out, we don't know which DLIs are on list. Probably U Sask will be on it, but don't assume. My daughter's university has done similar but can not yet confirm, waiting for official list to be published.
No one is assuming anything here madam or is it sir. I only got this email which was sent to all students beginning in January. And if you can read well you will see that one of the paragraphs clearly states that the government has already give them an approval. Its not an assumption. I recieved this two days before the minister passed the announcement in travel for international students.

Ask the university, or wait for the list to come out. I'd not think too much about the cases in Montreal too much, compared to March-May, not yet comparable. I think Canada needs to learn to live with the situation a bit more practically.

The University of Saskatchewan worked on some major projects over the last four months with the purpose of trying to get our international students back to Saskatoon and set up for success.

  • USask leaders have been seeking every opportunity to ask our federal government, respectfully, to allow the return of international students. We have done this through many individual conversations with government officials as well as working with universities across Canada to make the case for our students. We have also been working alongside the Ministry of Advanced Education for the province of Saskatchewan.

  • In response to the current travel restrictions for foreign citizens and other requirements set out by the Canadian government, we have provided letters to returning international students wherever possible and appropriate to ensure that our students, who were required to be in Canada this fall, had the documentation they needed to demonstrate a “non-discretionary” need to return to Saskatoon for their studies.

  • A team of staff members worked to develop a readiness plan that we submitted to the Government of Saskatchewan as a way to demonstrate that USask is ready to receive and support the successful return of international students to our campus and our wider community. We were recently told that our plan has been accepted by federal government authorities and that we are recognized as being ready to help students return to Canada safely.

  • We worked through a plan that would provide our returning international students with two USask facilitated quarantine options to consider so that they can meet Canada’s requirement to demonstrate you have a safe plan to return and also so that USask was able to provide supports to our students during their quarantine.

  • For our international graduate students, much effort was dedicated over the summer to finding a way to provide you with scholarship money that was offered to you upon your admission. We are glad to inform you that there is a now a process in place so that students within and outside of Canada can receive support from their scholarship funding, regardless of their current study location.
Each time the Canadian government has taken a step to make it easier for our international students to study remotely from your home country, we have been very grateful. We want you to know that we will continue to push forward in any way that we can identify to advocate for changes to immigration regulations that will make it easier for our international students to study remotely in the short-term and come to Canada. We are working hard and we will continue to work hard to see that happen. Your success matters to us and we know that many of you are anxious to return or anxious to get started.
Yes, I got similar mail
