If we take a few steps back, Ontario could be get even more fucked now that universities are being asked to arrange(guarantee) housing. The only way they can do so is by:
1. auctions of limited seats at extremely high prices to int'l students- this looks good, but let's not forget the rampant corruption we see with such initiatives. A lambda will be pay high(extra cash) for masters and still keep coming.
2. universities go around taking massive number of leases on rentals nearby to sublet to students - dual monetization for universities. Canadians will still be fucked as the inventory would stay low.

Unless people here do real-actual work for a living, they will keep on finding ways to abuse something.

Strong rumours that let to a statement by Queen's University that it does not face financial insolvency.
This is a respectable university, I wonder what's happening with Western and other good ones. I don't believe Queen's depends on international students but I could be wrong.

Edit: oops never mind:" By failing to meet projected targets for numbers of international students, with 152 fewer than planned, most in Arts and Science, the whole school has lost more than $12 million this year. " from a national post article

Most of these Universities don't rely on international tuition. While Trudeau’s mouthpiece CBC gave an misleading title to this article, McMaster President says University is not dependent on international tuition. I bet its the same case with other schools. The real losers are Lambda schools that run on international tuition.

Hello guys ! Do you have any idea why IRCC did not treat FSW-O files for the last 3 months?

https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/52e4b14b-597a-4ecf-a184-23a6e69b0d57#wb-auto-6

Here is the monthly update data for PPR issuing in different categories. FSW included. But my case is not included.

It can be mixed bag or vary from province to province. A good amount of money is spent on admin staff.. so there may be university where they have reduced the funds needed. I know the major university on vancouver Island is facing the cruch.

@GandiBaat this one is for you LOL
Procurement watchdog finds 76 per cent of listed ArriveCan subcontractors did no work

Massive, massive amounts of government corruption (as always) involved here.

So this is a trend I have noticed in Canada, or maybe this is how it is worldwide and Canadian govt simply adapted the same policies.
Whenever there is a government contract, they put in so many restrictions on the type of bidders that a small fish company simply isnt ineligible to bid. I can see some reasons that necessitate that but Canadian govt contracts seem generally overtly restrictive for a select few.

Its universal! Sometimes back TSA also did it. IBM wrote an application to generate random numbers to direct people in different queues. Thats all.... And changed US government hefty amounts.

French draw this time.

CRS - 365
ITAs - 7,000

Remember 2021, 2022 when everyone talked about how being inland was the best(if not the only) route to be a PR in 2023 and beyond - all these draws indicate otherwise. These draws emphasize learning french, gaining experience in in-demand jobs in home country is a much much safer bet. Also, they make the student immigration route not as popular. Hopefully this will convince a lot more folks to not come to Canada solely for "hopes" of getting a PR as a student.

There has been some concerns raised first by Quebec about the decline of french. And Quebecers do fight religiously for their french language. And there was also a study from Statistics Canada confirming the overall decline of French in the country. So The feds have first introduced the new official language charter and now they try to bring new francophones into the country.

Canada is trying to move on to Australian model and thats a good thing. They can also implement Australia like Global Talent Visa.

Someone previously said that this is IRCC's way of adding country cap, they wont come out and directly add country wise quotas like the US. Maybe because they just need to add a cap on India and every other country will balance out
