Canada: path to citizenship eased for international students
Canada’s newly elected Liberal government has announced changes to the country’s path to citizenship which will reduce stay requirements and allow international students to count study time towards residency petitions.
!["If I were asked what is the stupidest part of [Bill] C-24, I would say revoking the 50% credit for international students," said John McCallum (above).](https://d1pe6f90ru47yo.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/04120338/mccallum-860x375.jpg)
"If I were asked what is the stupidest part of [Bill] C-24, I would say revoking the 50% credit for international students," said John McCallum (above). Under Bill C-6 international students will be able to count 50% of their time towards the physical residency requirement and will need to reside three of the previous five years in the country.
