Morning Update: Lessons from international students
Sarabjit Singh has been coming by the protest before and after his shifts as a CNC machinist, often sleeping in the tents before heading back to work. After coming to Canada as an international student, he was able to find full time work in his field directly out of school. Singh worries about keeping his job as his temporary permit to stay in Canada expires at the end of this month - with no guarantee of removal. Now, he’s part of a small group of workers, international students and community members who have kept a protest-encampment on the side of a busy road in Brampton, Ontario going for over a week. They are calling for longer post-graduate work permits for international students and better pathways to permanent residency. Recent changes in Canadian immigration policy have left at least 100 000 former international students at risk of being forced to return to their home country once their permits expire.
