So if not able to the 3-day quarantine in Toronto, will students just fly to one of the other three airports?

most likely they will be denied entry in entry port before issuing study permit. The border office will ask you " why u are taking this route "

They cannot share quaratine location for that 11 days after... So pretty sure in that case they lied in their quaratine plan (hide that they are sharing with other people). This is like a crazy pot to mix virus (they are from different community originally and different household) before they take them out and spread it after... :(

You are right. you can't quarantee in shared accommodation, sad this was happening with some students to save costs

Winnipeg, however if Ontario bans entry then I could travel to Montreal and complete the quarantine there, then taking a flight to winnipeg

Sadly COVID is out of control in India that is why they banned direct flights from India but as I saw last night with own eyes, there was at least 50 students with Indian passports waiting for study permits having flown via Doha. If any of those were carrying the virus then if they went into shared accommodation then they might cause an outbreak. That said they should have had a pre-flight test so hopefully will be clean.

Yes, that's worry others too. these tests may produce false negative results on new variants....

We just know so little about new variants.... not sure if tests, vaccine or if the quarantine period is long enough for it...

These students might be from the lot that were given Student Permit way back. The reason I am saying is my friends who had applied for this Fall 2021 were asked to defer to Next Jan 2022. Most of the Consultants in India are asking Students to apply for next year. Something Positive news I have heard.

Students are not flying to spread Virus at least that is not the intention. I reckon Government should have revoked student permits or should have asked Colleges to defer academic to next year 2022 which would have closed this loophole. It's sad to see conversations like this as if Students are traveling to spread to another country. At some Point we all traveled to become residents or study here and that is exactly the intentions from these students. I agree there are few who do not follow the rules but again that cannot be attributed to entire county being wrong.

The study permit will be temporarily cancelled for international students from Ontario schools so they won't be able to board the plane.
