MORE REASONS FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS TO CHOOSE CANADA

April 18, 2005 ? The Honourable Joe Volpe, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, is pleased to build on the success of Canada’s international study program by announcing new initiatives to better attract, integrate and retain international students in regions throughout the country.

In partnership with provinces and territories, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) is expanding two pilot initiatives to help make Canada a destination of choice for international students. The first will allow international students at public post-secondary institutions to work off-campus while completing their studies so that they can experience the Canadian labour market and gain a wider understanding of Canadian society. The second will allow students to work for two years, rather than one year, after their graduation. This second initiative will apply outside Montréal, Toronto and Vancouver to help spread the benefits of immigration to more of Canada’s regions.

Through past pilot projects and agreements with CIC, some provinces have already experienced the success of the initiatives, which are now being expanded throughout Canada. The Government of Canada is investing $10 million a year for five years to support this announcement.

“We have been listening to our stakeholders and are certain that these initiatives will help increase the global competitiveness of Canada by attracting and retaining more international students to our schools,” said Minister Volpe. “International Students who choose to stay in Canada after they graduate greatly contribute to our labour market. It is important that they be exposed to the Canadian work force at an early stage to increase their chances of success following graduation.”

“Whether they choose to stay in Canada or return to their home country, they will have acquired Canadian experience and values that will enrich their lives. They will also spread the word about the quality of education Canada has to offer,” added the Minister.

CIC has also made other adjustments to its international study program. For example:
・ Post-secondary international students can now transfer between programs of study and institutions without applying for a change to the conditions of their study permit.
・ Secondary-level international students can now obtain longer high-school study permits.

As of May 16, 2005, international students who meet the eligibility criteria for a second year of post-graduation employment will be issued a two-year work permit. For these students, the two-year work permit will only be valid for one year since they will have already completed their first year of post-graduate work.

As with existing pilot projects, the off-campus work initiative will be implemented bilaterally in each province and territory, following agreements with CIC.

There is no way, that canadian government will do such thing.

As of May 16, 2005, international students who meet the eligibility criteria for a second year of post-graduation employment will be issued a two-year work permit. For these students, the two-year work permit will only be valid for one year since they will have already completed their first year of post-graduate work.

its for post-graduation employment not post-secondary.

This second initiative will apply outside Montréal, Toronto and Vancouver to help spread the benefits of immigration to more of Canada’s regions.

The first one has already happened in Manitoba for a waile le, which allow international student to work off campus in a limited time. However, it doesn't means it will happend in Ontario,BC or Quebec Regions. (We all know that there is no much people in Manitoba, thats why they want more students go to there in order to help their economy/labor market.)

you should read carefully about this article. it only mentioned about second initiative which will apply for more of Canadian regions.
btw, i forgot to mentioned the second initiative is already there for people in Newbrunswick. International students are allowed to stay 1 years longer than other regions of Canada.

如果真得变成申请工作许可， 还要看是否能达到第2年的要求的话，实际上是比现在难了。。。。。

不大可能是去作校外打工的。可能co-op会放宽，能给更多的国际学生机会到公司去实习。但是并不代表校外任何工作都给国际学生的。我觉得加拿大很难开这个口。

是啊，如果让国际学生去外面打工，那我看TORONTO不学习打工得就更多了～～～
