After the announcement, only public universities and colleges are eligible for PGWPs and they are audited by the auditor general.
This is misinformation. The poster is confusing between curriculum licensing agreement in private colleges and private universities. Private university offering degree programs will keep on getting PGWP, provided they fulfill eligibility criteria.

https://www.cicnews.com/2024/01/ircc-announces-new-eligibility-criteria-for-the-post-graduation-work-permit-0142511.html#gs.3h31mk

To be eligible for a PGWP, international students must have:
  • Completed studies in an academic, vocational or professional training program that is at least eight months long at an eligible Designated Learning Institution (DLI)
  • Study program must have led to a degree, diploma or certificate
  • Held full time student status in Canada during every academic session of the program of study and included as part of their post-graduation work permit application
  • Obtained a transcript and an official letter from the DLI confirming the applicant has met all requirements to complete their program of study
The student must also have graduated from:
  • A public post-secondary institution, such as a college, a trade or technical school, a university, or a CEGEP (in Quebec)
  • A private post-secondary school (in Quebec) that operates under the same rules as public schools in Quebec;
  • A private secondary or post-secondary school (in Quebec) that offers qualifying programs of 900 hours or longer and results in the issuance of a diplôme d’études professionnelles (DEP) or an attestation de spécialisation professionnelle (ASP); or
  • Canadian private school that can award degrees under provincial law (for example, Associate, Bachelor’s, Master’s or Doctorate degree) but only if the student was enrolled in a study program that leads to a degree as authorized by the province.

New generation of students will come via new route of masters study in god knows what. Do bachelors in India (IGNOU or numerous distance learning programs are very cheap in India), come to Canada to do masters in bogus subjects in times as low as 6-7 months and then do a Coop. Earn money and apply for 3 year PGWP.
As it stands today, the duration of PGWP looks to be correlated with the time spend studying. So a 1-yr program should only get a 1-yr PGWP. Only those who complete a 2 year program can get a PGWP upto 3 years.

Details emerge : https://www.cicnews.com/2024/01/breaking-ircc-to-announce-a-two-year-cap-on-admissions-for-international-students-0142492.html#gs.3fft1c

1. The caps will not impact current study permit holders or study permit renewals and do not include those pursing masters and doctoral degrees.

2. Further, IRCC is introducing caps for each province and territory

3. IRCC says that as of today, January 22 2024, every study permit application submitted to IRCC will also require an attestation letter from a province or territory (PT).

4. Starting September 2024, international students starting a study program that is part of a curriculum licensing arrangement will no longer be eligible for the PGWP. --- Good! no more Lambda College Brampton Dhillon Campus will get a PGWP.

5. IRCC has also announced that international students who have graduated from masters programs or other short graduate level programs will be able to apply for a 3-year work permit. --- HAHAHAHA! Get ready for 7-8 month masters plus 3 months "Coop training" in twerking. Come to Canada, master twerking get paid for 3 months as a professional twerker in walmart.

Oh IRCC! You beauty! You always move the dust but never remove the dust. New generation of students will come via new route of masters study in god knows what. Do bachelors in India (IGNOU or numerous distance learning programs are very cheap in India), come to Canada to do masters in bogus subjects in times as low as 6-7 months and then do a Coop. Earn money and apply for 3 year PGWP. Then PR. And the circle goes round and round and round. The next generation of lambda colleges will be on campus, purpose built degrees, staffed by Dhillon agency of educational experts and mostly online with occasional on campus "exams".
You are right. However, I think getting accredited to give out Master's degrees is harder. Not as easy as setting up lambda colleges.

Of course, there are billions of dollars at stake. They will most likely find a loophole.

Besides that, the Indian gravy train is over. Diplomatic tensions killed all hope of Indians looking towards Canada as destination for higher education.
https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2304045635984

India and Canada ‘working back towards a healthier relationship,’ says PM’s adviser

"We needs diplomats there to execute programs and issue visas".
----


For some reason, Indian side said nothing on these lines... Wonder why Canada is so keen in working towards a "healthier relationship".

And people were hoping for a per country limit. The more the things change, the more they stay same.

Both countries having healthier relationships is good for our mental peace though. Any positive movement here is a good thing(regardless of who does that).

It's simple, India is the biggest cash cow for Canada and they want to issue those visas, even the universities are crying about the student cap, so ridiculous.

Maybe the universities will lower their acceptance standards to boost international students because Masters is eligible for PGWP and SOWP, I will not be surprised if something like this happens, all they care about is money.

This reminds me of UK ,UK was functioning in the same way opening degree mills and importing clowns now I heard from so many I lost count the country has turned into a hell hole .I heard even indians (I said even indians because Indians are keen on migrating to west -BTW I am an indian lol ) are leaving to other countries especially Australia and EU .
When you have nothing to export in this competitive world this is what happens. UK once had a thriving manufacturing now yeah it is completely destroyed by competitors like US,Germany, China and stupid policies. Canada is just a repetition of UK only thing is Canada is rich in natural resources. As I mentioned earlier my biggest fear is canada becoming like UK ."YOU CANT RUN A COUNTRY BY JUST SELLING IMMIGRATION AND REAL ESTATE ESPECIALLY WHEN MORE THAN 80% OF THE COUNTRYIS UNLIVABLE" ,it is just a truth.I just don't understand when this clowns are gonna learn that.

If they really wished for that.... These folks are not really honest about it.

Letting extremists grow in your country to target another is a problem. Ultimately it comes to bite us back because we are the most exposed to it. Our kids in schools have to face bullies coming with such idea. And when they get crazy enough, they attack us. Most folks killed in Kanishka bombing were ethnic Indians. And these folks are back at issueing similar threats! When this mess hits the fan, we will be on the front to face the brunt of it.

You realize that the entire population of the world can fit inside the state of Texas and it will still have a population density of Manhattan NY. Land is not a problem.
