The Canadian government announced a reduction in study permit caps, decreasing the intake from 485,000 in 2024 to 437,000 in 2025 and keeping it at this level for 2026. New restrictions will also limit work permits for international graduates and the spouses of foreign students, aiming to align with labor market needs. These measures come in response to population growth, housing shortages, and the strain on public resources. The government is focusing on ensuring the immigration system supports the economy while managing the cost of living and public services.
