Concerns Regarding the Impact of International Students on Canadian Housing and Education"

In his 2023 article in a Canadian local newspaper focused on Business, Economics, Banking,
and Finance, author Ryan Tumilty aims to convey concerns regarding the impact of international
students on housing and education in Canada.

Summary:
 Summarize the primary source.

Concerns about exploitation are growing in Canada because of the influx of more
international students and the tightening property market. The Auditor General of
Ontario noted that the rising number of international students makes it more difficult to
locate suitable housing. Politicians take a variety of stances, but most concur that it is
unfair to blame international students for housing shortages. They contend that any
remedies should center on lowering the cost of housing.

Response Paragraph 1 - First claim with framework critiquing the main

source:
 Textual evidence from primary source; textual evidence from secondary sources

Universities significantly rely on the tuition fees from foreign students to maintain their
financial stability.

Homes Issues: The rise in international students has increased demand for local
homes, resulting in issues with the rental market and housing supply.

Immigration and affordability issues provide policy concerns that are visible from many
political perspectives.

Response Paragraph 2 - Second claim with framework critiquing the main

source:
 Textual evidence from primary source; textual evidence from secondary sources

Increase in Enrollment: From 13% in 2017 to 17% in 2021, there will be significantly
more overseas students attending Canadian colleges.

Dependency on Tuition Fees: International students now account for 45% of total tuition
payments, up from 29% previously, which shows a greater reliance on their costs.

Financial Risk: With up to 90% of their tuition income coming from foreign students,
many schools are financially vulnerable.

Conclusion:

 Restatement of the thesis; new questions; concluding statement

The text underscores the complex connections between the enrollment of international
students, housing problems, and how much Canadian colleges and universities rely on
tuition fees from these students. It shows the importance of having well-thought-out
policies that deal with these concerns and still provide good education and housing for
everyone.
