As many as 47,000 foreign students may have violated the terms of their visa and are currently in the country illegally, a representative for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada revealed at a House of Commons committee.
Aiesha Zafar, the head of migration integrity at the agency, said that 47,175 people who entered Canada as students are potentially “non-compliant,” meaning that they are not attending classes as required by the terms of their visa.
I bet that number is significantly understated and people with names like Aiesha Zafar should have nothing to do with immigration.
