All Sonali Sharma wanted was to go to school in Canada and become a nurse. It was everybody’s dream for her. So much so, that when she was accepted to a private college in Vancouver, Sonali’s entire village turned out to celebrate. Her dad took out a loan against their small farm in India to make it happen. But when Sonali arrived in Canada, everything she imagined her education would be evaporated...
Every year, thousands of international students come to Canada from over 185 countries, adding upwards of 21 billion dollars to the economy, and contributing about forty percent of tuition fees earned by Canadian colleges and universities.
