Ottawa: Thousands of students have taken to the streets in several cities across Canada to protest against a recent decision by the Canadian government.

The government recently made significant changes to student visa regulations and work policies, which have been deemed detrimental and unfair by the student community.

According to the students, these changes will reduce their opportunities for education and employment, thereby exacerbating their financial difficulties. Under the new policy, the government has decided to cut the number of working hours for international students and has increased tuition fees.

These new restrictions have placed students in a challenging situation, making it harder for them to manage their expenses while pursuing their education.

The protesting students are strongly advocating for their rights. They argue that the new regulations will limit their income opportunities while their costs continue to rise.

One student stated, “We are facing immense hardship due to the increase in fees and the reduction in work opportunities. These decisions are a direct attack on our dreams.”

The wave of protests has disrupted traffic in several cities and affected daily life. Many local and political leaders have come forward in support of the students. Some leaders have voiced concerns that this decision could not only be harmful to students but also negatively impact Canadian universities and colleges by affecting student enrollment.

So far, the government has not provided a clear response, but the protesters have warned that if their demands are not met, they will intensify their struggle. The students have vowed to continue their peaceful protests and push the government to reverse the decision.

The situation remains tense in various parts of Canada, and it will be interesting to see how the government responds in the coming days and whether the demands of the protesters will be met.
