The questioner is just proving her own questions?
What is non-compliance as a student?
Not going to the college?
How many colleges shut down their courses within the said period?
Do you expect students to be firever students?
What if they get work permit while still being student? This is very possible for the IT engineers from India, they are student here but get a job in USA or any other country and they leave.
Where are the statistics of students who got married to Canadian nationals and decided to stop studying because of family expenses?
It will be easy to track down the fees transfer and return of these said 8% non-compliant students. Did they get their money back? If not, then why didn't colleges paid the remaining fees back and report that non-obligatory to the study visa rules?
Or, was the past govt quite about this because Canada needed cheap labor and money in other colleges accounts?
Raises multiple clarifying questions about student compliance definitions and data, challenging the narrative with logical scrutiny.
