The COVID-19 pandemic has put students who recently graduated at a disadvantage compared to previous cohorts due to a weaker labour market. A significant number of international graduates have not been able to secure work, have been laid off, or have seen their hours reduced. Hence, Government of Canada has announced a public policy and hopes that this new international student policy will help offset the challenges and barriers that the current global health crisis has created for this population.
