๐Ÿ‘‰Ontario Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing, Paul Calandra, announced two new student residences at Western University to house over 1,000 students, aiming to free up affordable homes for London families. This initiative is part of the Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act, 2024, which simplifies housing development processes. By exempting publicly assisted universities from the Planning Act, the province speeds up student housing construction and removes municipal planning hurdles. The legislation also requires colleges and universities to publish student housing policies, ensuring better information and resources for students.โœ… . ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐ž๐ฒ ๐ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Š๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐†๐“๐€ ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐Ÿ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘-๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ๐Ÿ” ๐„๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐œ๐š๐ง๐š๐๐ข๐š๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #StudentHousing #WesternUniversity #OntarioHousing #AffordableHomes #CuttingRedTape #LondonON #HousingCrisis #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

University of Guelph Boosts Services Amid Housing Shortage for Record First-Year Class

โœ…The University of Guelph is ramping up services and support for an influx of first-year students, despite facing criticism for accepting more students than it can house. With 1,300 students on a residence waitlist, the university is adding staff to its off-campus living team and expanding health and mental health services. Class sizes will increase, and new courses will be added to accommodate the higher enrollment. Orientation week programs will also be expanded, and off-campus meal plans will be available. The university's provost, Gwen Chapman, highlighted the need for strategic enrollment growth to generate revenue and enhance the student experience.. .

๐Ÿ‘‰Incoming first-year students at the University of Guelph are experiencing anxiety and frustration due to the uncertainty of securing a residence spot for the upcoming fall semester. Last week, many were informed they might not be guaranteed accommodation. An email sent on Monday clarified that 1,356 students are on the waitlist, but details about their chances remain unclear. This isn't the first time the university has faced housing issues; in 2022, they made significant adjustments to accommodate a record number of students. A proposed new residence project was rejected by city council, further complicating the situation.โœ… . ๐„๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ญ ๐Œ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž ๐€๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž- ๐€๐ญ ๐š ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐ž๐ง๐ข๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ! ๐‰๐จ๐ฆ ๐Œ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐š๐ฆ ๐Œ๐จ๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ž ๐Œ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž ๐€๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐ซ +๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฆ.๐ฆ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐š๐ฆ@๐œ๐ข๐›๐œ.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @jom_mattam . . #UniversityOfGuelph #StudentHousing #ResidenceWaitlist #FirstYearStudents #CampusLiving #StudentAccommodation #UniversityLife #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰International students in Canada, particularly from India, face significant housing challenges. Statistics Canada reports that in municipalities like Surrey, B.C., and Brampton, Ont., over 60% of international students live in unsuitable housing, compared to much lower rates among Canadian-born students. Aneet Kaur, an international student in Surrey, shares a cramped two-bedroom suite with five others, struggling with privacy, landlord issues, and mental health. The study highlights that Indian students are disproportionately affected. The number of international students has surged since the data was collected, exacerbating the housing issue.โœ… . ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ ๐„๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐‹๐š๐ฐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐‹๐š๐ฐ ๐‚๐ซ๐ข๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐š๐ฅ ๐‹๐š๐ฐ ๐’๐ข๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข ๐‚๐ก๐š๐œ๐ค๐จ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐œ๐ข๐ฉ๐š๐ฅ ๐‹๐š๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ž๐ซ, ๐‚๐ก๐š๐œ๐ค๐จ ๐‹๐š๐ฐ ๐Ÿ“ฒ+๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ๐Ÿ”-๐Ÿ“๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ—-๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ“๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ– ๐Ÿ“ง๐ฌ๐ข๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ข@๐œ๐ก๐š๐œ๐ค๐จ๐ฅ๐š๐ฐ.๐œ๐š @chackolaw.ca . . #InternationalStudents #HousingCrisis #StudentHousing #CanadaImmigration #SurreyBC #BramptonON #MentalHealth #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰RBC anticipates a slowdown, but not a decline, in rental demand from international students this year, despite the recently imposed cap on new study permits. The report suggests a potential 50% reduction in the expected surge in rental demand due to the policy. The cap, announced by Immigration Minister Marc Miller, aims to manage the sharp growth in international student enrollments in Canadian post-secondary institutions. While the cap may affect rental markets in Ontario and British Columbia more significantly, economist Rachel Battaglia notes that an immediate decline in total international students or rental demand may not occur in 2024.โœ… . ๐„๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ญ ๐Œ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž ๐€๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž- ๐€๐ญ ๐š ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐ž๐ง๐ข๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ! ๐‰๐จ๐ฆ ๐Œ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐š๐ฆ ๐Œ๐จ๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ž ๐Œ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ ๐š๐ ๐ž ๐€๐๐ฏ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐ซ +๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ• ๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฆ.๐ฆ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐š๐ฆ@๐œ๐ข๐›๐œ.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @jom_mattam . . #InternationalStudents #StudyPermitCap #RentalDemand #CanadianImmigration #HousingMarket #StudentHousing #RBCReport #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰Faced with Vancouver's soaring rent prices, UBC arts student Tim Chen has found an innovative solutionโ€”commuting from his hometown, Calgary, to attend classes. Giving up his rental in Vancouver after a vacation, Chen discovered the increased housing costs upon his return. In response, he opted for a cost-effective alternative, flying from Calgary for about $150 round trip. With only two classes per week, the monthly flight expense of $1,200 proves substantially cheaper than Vancouver's average one-bedroom rent of $2,100. As Vancouver maintains its status as Canada's priciest city for renters, Chen plans to continue this unconventional commute until his graduation.โœ… . ๐๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ˆ๐ง๐๐ข๐š-๐‚๐š๐ง๐š๐๐š ๐Ÿ๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ฌ ๐š๐ฐ๐š๐ข๐ญ! ๐‘๐š๐ก๐ฆ๐š๐ง ๐“๐ซ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ ๐’๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž๐ฌ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ—-๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ”, ๐Ÿ—๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ“-๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ๐Ÿ-๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ• ๐ฌ๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ@๐ซ๐š๐ก๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž๐ฌ.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @rahmantravelservices . . #VancouverRent #StudentHousing #CreativeSolutions #UBCStudents #AffordableLiving #HousingCosts #CanadianStudents #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

๐Ÿ‘‰Starting this fall, post-secondary institutions in Canada can access low-interest loans to construct student housing, announced Housing Minister Sean Fraser. The federal government is modifying an existing program to extend low-cost financing to universities, colleges, non-profits, and private developers for on-campus and off-campus residences. The Apartment Construction Loan Program received an additional $15 billion last fall, totaling $40 billion in available funding. Despite Monday's announcement not injecting more money into the funding pool, Fraser emphasized the imperative of expanding student housing amidst a burgeoning international student program, which has strained local housing markets. The announcement coincides with the return of the House of Commons after a winter hiatus.โœ… . ๐๐š๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ง๐ž๐ฒ ๐ž๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Š๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐๐ข๐œ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐†๐“๐€ ๐‘๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. ๐‚๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ: +๐Ÿ (๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•) ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ‘-๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ๐Ÿ” ๐„๐ฆ๐š๐ข๐ฅ: ๐ค๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ@๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐œ๐š๐ง๐š๐๐ข๐š๐ง๐ก๐จ๐ฆ๐ž.๐œ๐จ๐ฆ @kamalpillai_realtor . . #StudentHousing #CanadaInfrastructure #PostSecondaryEducation #LowCostLoans #HousingExpansion #InternationalStudents #CanadaEducation #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews

Despite assurances made during the admission process, these institutions have failed to provide housing, leading to a protest outside the campus. Students are struggling to secure affordable lodging in the small city of North Bay, with landlords charging exorbitant rates for shared basement rooms.
