Kitchener-based Conestoga College said the prosperity of the local communities is threatened by pressure on the labour supply as well as federal policy changes.
Kitchener-based Conestoga College, which has seen new approved study permits up 137 per cent over the last three years, said the prosperity of the local communities is threatened by the pressure on the labour supply.
Same shit here with Cape Breton University. Been exploiting a low income area in favor of increasing their wealth and status. Then deriding the community for speaking out against their practices. But hey they have good soccer teams so who cares right.
Nothing says "mercenary diploma mill" like "largest number of international students".
Yes, I get it - I saw it in the '90s - Canadian collages are ridiculously addicted to the foreign green and firmly on the "admin pork but paltry pay" playbook since before even my time; but basing themselves only against American colleges has really helped them level up the greed so fucking hard.
Catering to the foreign students like this place must have put them in some weird Twilight zone of "we know we're doing what's best for the country because look at how much foreign money were spending on luxury homes!"
I still have mixed feelings about this reform. It can cause positive, and also negative effects on the whole educational system. Of course, I think that having international students is important, especially if they are talented and can bring a lot of positive things. But it's also important not to forget about local students. In my uni, there are pretty many international students, and together, we work and study perfectly. When I have problems, they are always open to help, and so on, and they take a lot of initiative. But I'd say that it's not that easy for me to study because the requirements are high, and from time to time, I use https://essays.edubirdie.com/excel-help when I need some urgent writing assistance, and it has never let me down. But I've already found one person who can help with it, and I hope it will work out.
