Quebec stops Scam College Backdoors to Immigration

 Yes Polly Anna there are scam career colleges that abuse education, immigration and labour laws to extract huge amounts of money from internationals.

Quebec is protecting their taxpayers, their workforce and the integrity of their education system by closing these backdoors.

The scam career colleges degrade the value of both Quebec's and Canada's education reputation. Since taxpayers pay billions each year to educate Canadians they have to protect the tax dollars and the value of taxpayer investment into Canadians.

This small group of self-serving criminals are out there eroding the value of Canada using garbage, self manufactured textbooks, unproven training programs and unqualified trainers. Many of these scam colleges do not have adequate attendance, administration, teaching or placement programs. 

You must ask yourself why would someone pay $10,000 or 15,000 for a textbook with 50 mistakes on each page, and unqualified staff.

Some agents actually promise  a hacked school computer system where the students just give themselves 90% on tests and 100% attendance,  The ability to work "full time" because of the hacked computer system. The fake marks can get "students" into a better school or a job after "graduation" and presto after 4 years apply for immigration.

The damage these scam colleges cause are widespread. The scam college textbooks with 50 mistakes on each page have been used by agents to show international students that education is terrible in Canada - and students should go anywhere but Canada. 

These garbage self-manufactured textbooks alone have cost Canada millions of dollars.

The career colleges have been lobbying for years to secure  their "free intern" programs - we can blame  a large % of Canadian youth unemployment on jobs taken by free interns that eliminate the ability of Canadian youth to get work experience or any chance of earning a salary as an intern.

The scam career colleges are promoting a type of slavery and destroying parts of the labour market.

Links to the Quebec announcements: Obtaining a post-graduation work permit

At the end of your studies, if you wish to work in Québec, you can submit an application for a post-graduation work permit  from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.  

Your post-graduation work permit is valid for up to the same length as your study program. It allows you to work for any eligible employer in Canada.

On June 7, 2022, changes were made to the eligibility conditions for post-graduation work permits for international students enrolled in certain study programs and educational institutions in Québec.

Visit the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada website  to know which programs and institutions give access to this type of work permit.
