Canada's New Immigration Rule of Doubling Cost-of-Living Fuels Reverse Immigration

Backing the new immigration rule Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, Marc Miller said: “International students provide significant cultural, social and economic benefits to their communities, but they have also faced challenges navigating life in Canada. We are revising the cost-of-living threshold so that international students understand the true cost of living here. This measure is key to their success in Canada. We are also exploring options to ensure that students find adequate housing. These long-overdue changes will protect international students from financially vulnerable situations and exploitation.”
