Universities welcome the federal government’s decision to open the border to international students on October 20, as announced by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) on Oct. 5.
“York welcomes this development. We are working with the provincial and federal government, as well as other universities to provide a safe return of international students to Canada,” said Yanni Dagonas, deputy spokesperson for York University.
Matthew Ramsey of the University of British Columbia (UBC) added, “Like any organization, where international students play a role on campus life, we would be happy to see more students able to return to campus.”
