Global News — International students allocated to Ontario colleges, universities to drop again
The Ford government has been told to again reduce the number of international students who can study at Ontario universities and colleges, as overseas applicants disappear and their tuition revenue falls out of the province’s post-secondary system. Since applying a cap on international students at the beginning of 2024, the federal government has been reducing the number of applicants each year, with Ontario then lowering allocations at its institutions.
Global News — Canada sees record population drop, driven by fewer temporary residents
Canada has reported its largest population drop on record, which is being attributed mainly to a major decline in temporary foreign students and workers. Statistics Canada said Wednesday the national population fell by 76,068 people, or 0.2 per cent, in the third quarter of this year. The agency said the number of non-permanent residents in Canada decreased by 176,479 over the same period, a nearly six-per cent drop — the largest since those records began in 1971.
CBC News — Trump expands U.S. travel ban to 5 more countries and Palestinian Authority, toughens limits on others
The Trump administration is expanding its travel ban to include five more countries — plus the Palestinian Authority — and imposing new limits on 15 others, doubling the number of jurisdictions affected by sweeping limits announced earlier this year on who can travel and emigrate to the U.S. The administration said Tuesday it is banning citizens of Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan and Syria from entering the U.S., as well as people travelling on documents issued by the Palestinian Authority.
CIC News — Arrivals under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program sink to two-year low
Arrivals under Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) have hit a new low, according to the most recent government data. On December 16, IRCC published the most recent monthly arrival data, showing that only 3,215 new TFWP work permit holders arrived in October of 2025. This is the lowest monthly number of arrivals under the TFWP in the dataset published by IRCC, which begins with December 2023. The slowdown in new arrivals can largely be attributed to sustained policy efforts by the federal government, including a moratorium on low-wage LMIA application processing, raising eligible wage thresholds for applications, and a reduction in overall TFWP levels.
The Globe and Mail — Conestoga College feels the squeeze after Ottawa’s sharp reduction in foreign students
By the end of 2023, roughly 32,500 foreign students were enrolled at Conestoga, an increase of 145 per cent from just two years prior. And that boom period provided the college in Kitchener, Ont., with an infusion of cash: Revenue nearly tripled to $945-million in the 2023-24 academic year, compared to three years earlier. But things have changed abruptly for Conestoga, which had grown beyond its base in southern Ontario. As the federal government has reined in immigration – largely through a sharp reduction in foreign students – postsecondary schools such as Conestoga are feeling the financial squeeze. And because of the shift, Conestoga’s changing fortunes are having an outsized impact in the community, leading to layoffs in higher education, weaker sales for local businesses and fewer job seekers.
Government of Canada — New citizenship rules for Canadians born or adopted abroad are now in effect
As previously announced, the new law also creates a modern, consistent path going forward. A Canadian parent born or adopted abroad can now pass on citizenship to their child born or adopted outside Canada today or in the future, provided they can demonstrate at the time of application that they spent three years in Canada prior to their child’s birth or adoption. This approach supports fairness and clarity for Canadian families abroad while reinforcing the principle that real, demonstrated ties to Canada guide citizenship by descent.
