Indian students in Canadian province take to the streets over tightening immigration rules
Indian students in PEI protest PNP changes and PGWP expiry. Federal gov't faces student protests over PR uncertainty, job competition, and limited options. MEA's Jaiswal addresses protests, downplays deportation concerns, and notes Indian student presence in Canada. Growing unrest signals challenges...
We owe them nothing. They are trying to cheat the system. People who jump through the hoops to get their PR should be the most insulted.
Well, they've been 'scammed' by the scumbags who sold them false dreams. Most of these folks are in huge debt, and they're fucked either way - they'll end up jobless in India, or exploited by wage-slavers. It's just that being in Canada gives them a hopelessly small chance to escape poverty.
This is rather like cattle protesting for faster processing times at the abbatoir.
Canada is basically strip-mining south Asian students for every cent of value as a way to avoid making hard political decisions about taxing the rich.
Foreign tuition isn't a drop in the bucket toward federal expenses.
It's not about the tuition (although most of our universities are effectively subsidized by foreign students paying higher tuition fees), it's about having an easily exploitable labour force while they're here studying. Less familiarity with labour laws and less protections than a citizen make for attractive wage slaves.
Of course, the solution isn't tightening immigration, but the actual solutions might make the wealthy accumulate riches at a slightly slower pace, therefore it is unimaginable.
Indian students studying in Canada might hurt India (it's complicated), but it definitely benefits the students.
