Asevere unemployment crisis affecting at least one million international students in Canada, including Nigerians, has sparked worries about loose immigration policies that have turned Canada into a sanctuary for migrants and insufficient low-income jobs to go round.<\/p>\n
According to Voice of America, photos seen on the Canadian Internet showed crowds waiting in line for a simple cashier job opening, as foreign students lamented the unavailability of jobs that would cater to their financial needs and responsibilities.<\/p>\n
Already, international students are limited in the Canadian labour market as they can only work part-time and majorly in low-income jobs. But these jobs have even become increasingly rare to land, a student told the outlet.<\/p>\n
Migrants trooped to Canada en masse after the nation opened employment pathways and immigration opportunities to international students upon completion of their study degrees.<\/p>\n
The government, however, seemed unprepared for the soaring cost of housing that was a domino effect of its relaxed immigration policies.<\/p>\n
Still, reducing international students will not bode well for Canadian institutions who generate a chunk of their revenue for the exorbitant tuition fees of foreigners.<\/p>\n
The government may be torn between shutting its doors to temporary immigrants or allowing its institutions to continue benefiting from the high tuition cost of international students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
