Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced that Canada will reduce its intake of international students by 10% starting in 2025.
This decision is driven by concerns over exploitation and misuse of the student visa system, which has been reportedly taken advantage of by bad actors.
In a recent statement, Trudeau highlighted the growing issues of fraud and misuse within the student visa process, emphasizing the need for stricter regulations to protect the integrity of Canada’s immigration system.
The reduction in international student admissions is part of broader efforts to address these concerns while ensuring that Canada continues to offer high-quality education to international students.
The government’s decision aims to tighten regulations and prevent abuse of the immigration system, while still upholding Canada’s commitment to providing a top-tier educational experience for students from abroad.
The move reflects ongoing efforts to balance the benefits of international education with the need for robust and secure immigration policies.
