Yes, you can. As of June 1, 2014:

The study permit holder must be pursuing academic, vocational or professional training of six months or more that leads to a degree, diploma or certificate at a designated institution.

Isn't the latest post considered official?
I find it hard to believe they would post something under the "News" section without it being official. It wasn't found in some deep corner of the website after all.
