Excellent, now let's start with reducing any students from coming here for education.

While the rest of the world gets on doing business with Ch (now the second largest economy on the planet), Canada has its head still inserted way up itself. Canada’s loss, the rest of the business world win. Canada again gets sucked into competitive business gaslighting. Again other countries will beat Canada to securing huge contracts, such as LNG, oil, wine, minerals, tourism, etc.
Canada needs multiple customer countries, even if we don’t agree with everything they do. Your car dealer will still sell you a car, even if you have different political views from the car dealer! Business is business.
And we wonder why we’re falling behind

Re: China snubs Canadian travelers
Why would we want to do that? Do you know how much $$$ international students bring to the university towns? UBC would not be one of the top 50 universities in the world without international students.featfan wrote: ↑Aug 16th, 2023, 9:23 am https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/china- ... -1.6936627

Re: China snubs Canadian travelers
especially spots for doctors.
Over the last ten years, the UBC Faculty of Medicine has expanded, more than doubling medical school enrolment and significantly increasing the number of postgraduate trainees. Within this expansion, the Province of B.C. has worked to reduce barriers to practice for International Medical Graduates, and has more than tripled entry-level IMG residency training positions to 58.

There are over 800,000 foreign students in Canada. How many are filling spots that should be taken by Canadian students?
And by all means, Chinese students should not be on that list.
Added. These 800,000+ also need places to live.
I'm posting this from Traditional lands of the British Empire & the current Lands of The Dominion of Canada.
I also give thanks for this ethos richness bestowed on us via British Colonialism.

Re: China snubs Canadian travelers
It makes little sense to me either. Fill up those vacant spots with overseas students, get their training as doctors and then leave. Sure, they PAID to fill those seats, but in the meantime Canada is desperately short of doctors to fill our own needs. In what fantasy world does this scenario make any sense at all?Babba_not_Gump wrote: ↑Aug 16th, 2023, 4:18 pmfeatfan wrote: ↑Aug 16th, 2023, 9:23 am https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/china- ... -1.6936627

The sideline is they also cut into much needed housing for Canadian citizens. Where is the outrage?
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

Send all those students from China back home immediately, money paid is being held.
Unfortunately the Ottawa putz doesn’t have the balls to do this. He’s in love with China.

Chinese students fuel our economy and pay enormous money to universities that subsidize domestic students
Sure, let's shoot ourselves in a foot.
