Canadians are opposing Indian immigrants
The anger is directed more towards youngsters on student visas. The student's visa has been misused as a shorter route to permanent residency and citizenship in Canada.
Reeling under high volume of immigrants, a province in Canada, Prince Edward Islands (PEI), changed some rules.
The change in rules has impacted international students. Hundreds of Indian students are facing deportation and are protesting against the change in immigration rules.
Residents of PEI, the smallest Canadian province, say reveal why the rules were changed and why they don't want any more immigrants right now.
The issues with housing, healthcare and jobs were at the centre of the immigration policy change in the Prince Edward Islands (PEI) in Canada. There was a 25% cut in immigration permits.
Locals feel that their opportunities are being taken away by immigrants living in their province.
The PEI premier revealed how it intends to decrease the number of international migrants for permanent residency through the Provincial Nominee Programme. The new policy focusses on healthcare, childcare and construction instead of the service sectors, food and retail.
The anger is directed more towards youngsters on student visas. The student's visa has been misused as a shorter route to permanent residency and citizenship in Canada.
They think that opportunities are slipping away from them. In a recent episode of Ratio'd with Harrison Faulkner, several locals from PEI shared with Faulkner the real reason why they didn't want the Indian students there.
