Show Notes
Canadas Auditor General reveals a staggering sixty-six percent drop in international student approvals in British Columbia, far exceeding expectations. This drastic decline, due to federal immigration cuts, has led to budget shortfalls at colleges and universities, with smaller institutions particularly hard hit. Educators and local leaders warn of a loss of diversity and global perspectives in classrooms, while provincial officials express frustration over late notifications and call for more control and pathways to permanent residency. A four-month review of the post-secondary system is underway, as provinces push back against sustainable education funding.
