We went undercover in India to reveal the pitch made by some education recruitment agents with financial connections to colleges in Canada. Lured by the promise of a quality post-secondary education and a chance to build a life here, thousands of foreign students arrive every year and find what they were promised - and what their families paid for - often isn’t what awaits them.
ਅਸੀਂ ਕੈਨੇਡੀਅਨ ਕਾਲਜਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਵਿੱਤੀ ਸਬੰਧ ਰੱਖਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਕੁਝ ਭਾਰਤੀ ਏਜੰਟਾਂ ਦਾ ਗੁਪਤ ਤਰੀਕੇ ਨਾਲ ਪਰਦਾਫਾਸ਼ ਕੀਤਾ । ਚੰਗੀ ਉਚੇਰੀ ਸਿੱਖਿਆ ਦੇ ਵਾਅਦੇ ਅਤੇ ਚੰਗੇ ਭਵਿੱਖ ਦੀ ਤਲਾਸ਼ ਹਜ਼ਾਰਾਂ ਭਾਰਤੀ ਵਿਦਿਆਰਥੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਰ ਸਾਲ ਕੈਨੇਡਾ ਖਿੱਚ ਲਿਆਂਉਦੀ ਹੈ। ਪਰ ਹਕੀਕਤ ਵਿੱਚ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਅਕਸਰ ਇਹ ਸਭ ਨਹੀਂ ਮਿਲਦਾ, ਜਿਸ ਦੀ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਉਮੀਦ ਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਦੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰਾਂ ਨੇ ਖਰਚਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ।

Finally someone has the guts in Canada to uncover this

@bytesizedscreencasts Жыл бұрын

You should translate this documentary in Hindi and Punjabi so every one sitting in India can watch and understand easily. Specially the parents of these children.

It’s not just a toll on students, the mass influx has destroyed rental affordability in every Canadian city.

@tobyod

The answer is so simple, don't allow any student visas to any private school.

It makes me angry that the ones who were lucky enough to study and eventually live in Canada would turn around and start a company that fully takes advantage of someone who wants the Canadian Dream as well. Completely heartless ❗

@venkateswarluk5133 Жыл бұрын

The UK faced the same situation about a decade ago, which resulted in the closing down of all colleges that were there only to provide visas to international students.

@ElPalomo

There is no incentive to stop this because the universities and colleges are banking a fortune on these Indian students. Not only education institutions but landlords and local businesses take advantage of the situation by overcharging and exploiting them for very low wages. it's become a big problem and it needs to be addressed more.

@kaleidojess

This makes so much sense and I understand why there are so many international students in canada. I knew a guy who would recruit people for work in Canada and he would get paid 2000 or so per person. It's like importing slaves and slave labour. I guess we all get exploited at some point.

Working with hundreds of Indian international students over the past year has shown me that there is no way the majority of them have legitimate university degrees.

@sepandjazzi Жыл бұрын

As a university educator, this has been going on for years. Education has become commoditized. It is taking its toll on educators as well.

@eric4079

the amount of international students Canada is accepting is not sustainable. There's not enough student housing or part time jobs. The colleges and universities have taken advantage of both domestic and international students.

These students need to go back to India and sue the recruiters in India for false representation. It is not our problem.

Dilpreet kaur is my classmate and she has become the voice of us international students she stood against the college and gathered other students.

I am so glad that I dedicated 3 years of my life and got a good college and Job in my own country India. After hearing about all the problems that the international students face on a daily basis life in India feels more easy

@moussaboisbande3931

This is very sad. As a canadian, I hope this tuition scam stops because it's not only hurting individuals coming to Canada with false hope, but also hurts the canadian house/job market greatly for locals.

@user-qd8sx8ft6x

Nope, we have 300k homeless across Canada, food banks are overwhelmed and housing available is not enough to meet the market demand.

@anastasia_n2119

Literally- NOT ONLY INDIANS - EVERY INTERNATIONAL STUDENT IN CANADA - feels the same.

@BowPaws Жыл бұрын

When i went to Canada for my studies in 2015 at Fleming College, the class had only four international students. Three Indians and one Nigerian.

@SRTendulkar999

Many times children have no desire to leave India. It is the parents who looks at neighbors or relatives kids and want their kids to enjoy the same. Most kids cannot say no to parents and get stuck for life.

@pardonmybumbershoot5085

I graduated uni in Canada in 2010. Since then, the school and neighbourhoods surrounding it are unrecognizable due to the massive increase in int'l students.
