Canada Slashes Study Permits for Foreign Students
Ottawa, Canada – In a shocking move, the Canadian government has announced drastic reductions in study permits for international students, with Indian nationals expected to bear the brunt.
PERMIT CUTS: 35% THIS YEAR, 10% NEXT
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau revealed the cuts on X, stating, “Immigration is good for our economy, but when bad actors abuse the system, we crack down.”
INDIAN STUDENTS HIT HARDEST
With over 427,000 Indian students currently enrolled in Canadian institutions, this decision will force many to seek alternative destinations like the US, UK, or Australia.

- Stricter language criteria for temporary foreign workers and international students
- Increased financial requirements for international students
