Canada's foreign student asylum claims hit record high in 2024, set to grow in 2025
International students filed a record 20,245 asylum claims last year, with 2025 on track to surpass that number, according to federal immigration data obtained by Global News.
The claims are rising, even as Ottawa cuts the number of study permits it issues, with Prime Minister Mark Carney pledging, like his predecessor Justin Trudeau, to return Canadian immigration to “sustainable levels.”
