So no draws even today, Not sure if IRCC is using this as an excuse to pause draws (maybe the quota for the year is achieved) or if they are really having so many technical issues.
Last year, when they had such issues, they announced the PGWP extension during December

Key points:
1. He said new pilot programs will also be introduced to encourage post-secondary education institutions to recruit international students from underrepresented countries.
2. Starting January 1, 2024, the cost-of-living financial requirement for study permit applicants will be raised from the current $10,000 to $20,635 in addition to their first year of tuition and travel costs to ensure that international students are better prepared for life in Canada.
3. Caps to be put in place

Other announcements from Minister today:
1. No more PGWP extensions
2. Students can work 40 hours/week till April 2024

#1 will be interesting to see. Probably a diversification strategy to source students, but one that's not needed if the quality of students was the focus. It appears to be an excuse for never really fixing the quality of students.

When liberals tank so hard in the polls, they become quick to act. Better late than never I guess. It’s hilarious to see how Pierre pollievre has them by the balls.

Students can work 40 hours per week. Lmao what a fucking joke, I totally missed that. Forcing low skilled Canadians to not be able to get a job. Also, this literally means corporates can hire students as FT employees

It is an extension for another 4 months or so. It will be eventually gutted like PGWP extensions too. Interesting times ahead for everyone.

Yep, it's huge. However, I am still wondering who is the other half of temporary residents.
I am guessing the criminals from South America coming with Mexican passports. They have also allowed many countries like Korea to get work permits for those under 30.

Objectively speaking, this government actively screwing its own population. It's just wow. I would even go as far as to say they are competing with North Korea in terms of screwing their own people.

The lambdas will be freaking out tonight
Liberals will find a way.
They closed Roxham, which decreased refugees. But they have increased visas to poor countries knowing full well that they will come and claim refugee status.
Refugee claims have shot up in airports.
It's incredible how these Liberals operate.
