Indian Students Protest Against New Canadian Deportation Policy
Why should you care?
If you're an international student in Canada, you need to be aware of the new immigration policy that could put you at risk of deportation.
The policy, which was announced in June 2023, makes it more difficult for international students to extend their study permits. This means that many students could be forced to leave Canada after they graduate.
The policy has sparked outrage among international students, who say it is unfair and discriminatory.
What is the new immigration policy?
The new immigration policy is called the "Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to Study" policy.
The policy makes it more difficult for international students to extend their study permits by:
- Requiring students to have a job offer from a Canadian employer before they can apply for an extension.
- Limiting the number of times that students can extend their study permits.
- Increasing the fees for study permit extensions.
Why are students protesting?
International students are protesting the new immigration policy because they say it is unfair and discriminatory.
Students say that the policy is unfair because it targets them specifically.
They also say that the policy is discriminatory because it makes it more difficult for students from certain countries to extend their study permits.
What can you do?
If you're an international student who is concerned about the new immigration policy, there are a few things you can do:
- Contact your Member of Parliament (MP) and express your concerns.
- Attend a protest or rally against the policy.
- Share your story with the media.
