CBC News — Immigration minister says struggling universities must ask provinces for help
Canada’s immigration minister says universities and colleges struggling to balance the books after federal cuts to the international student program will have to turn to their provincial governments for financial help. Lena Metlege Diab told a crowd in Halifax Friday that the post-pandemic immigration boom helped employers struggling to find labour, but it also put unsustainable pressure on the health care system, housing and other services, which Canadians noticed. Now she says the government is looking for a better balance, and part of that is curbing the number of international students.
