International Student working while studying online

[AhmedAlagha]

Hello,

Given the current situation with COVID-19, many universities have allowed international students to be enrolled and start online, without the need of coming to Canada (for now). To stay in my current country (to have a valid residence visa), i need to be working. Is it illegal by any mean to work full time while doing studies online, for now until we can travel to canada?

Thanks
