I came to Canada back in April, 2021 amongst pandemic. High quality education and tools that can nourish my skillset has always driven me to pursue my post-graduate studies in Canada. I’m ambitious and goal-driven person, that’s why Canada always seemed land of opportunities to me. Although fee structure in Canada for international students has set limits to what could I potentially achieve. My parents have taken financial loan to pursue my education here. The fees are 4 times higher than domestic students which limits my true potential in learning. Since I have to work extra-hours to pay for my second course’s fee. If we as international students have to pay less fees, than I would have more time and energy to develop the skillset in my area if learning which is logistics and project management. This is not just about me though. All of international students are facing the same situation all over Canada. Students are not able to develop their true potential in their own area and it will result in Canada having lack of skilled person in future. If country’s education system is concerned with filling their pockets with international students blood and sweat money, then they might have workforce with poor skillset in future which can affect all areas of economy as most of Canada’s workforce are immigrants. We have to accept the fact that immigrants hold major portion in contributing nations’ GDP and can perform even better if things are in their favor. It will both immigrants as well as these country to grow. |
