Housing And Racism Struggles of International Students In Canada

Canada has changed its higher education system and policies in 2024 and 2025. This along with many other factors has left the international students facing challenges in finding accommodation.

A survey found that over 55% of international students struggle to find suitable housing amid the increase in rental pricing and racial discrimination. The shortage of affordable housing has become a major concern for international students amid their financial instability and racial discrimination in Canada’s rental market.

Many students from India and China have revealed experiencing system racism in Canada’s rental market.

The new immigration policies limit student permits, with undergraduate admissions set to drop by 35% in 2024 and another 10% in 2025. The Canadian government also introduced a two-year cap on international student permits and this policy aims to reduce the economic pressures due to the growing numbers of international students and its effects on public services and housing. The new immigration policies are now worrying international students about their future in Canada.
