Thunder Bay - Temperatures dropped to -33 C Monday morning, and people are still often living in homeless encampments or in their cars. "It's heartbreaking. It's all heartbreaking," said Holly Gauvin, executive director of Elevate NWO. Gauvin said the cold temperatures have driven many people living in encampments indoors for safety, but she knows at least 30 people are still living outside despite the dangerous conditions. "That's a significant number," Gauvin said. Gauvin said sometimes people are able to find short-term shelter on their own. "They'll be in stairwells, hallways, and buildings they can access."

Recently, according to government data from spring 2024, compliance issues among international students in Canada have drawn widespread attention. The data shows that nearly 50,000 international students failed to show up for classes at their colleges and universities, sparking heated debate about the effectiveness of Canada's international student compliance system. According to statistics from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), this absence rate accounts for 6.9% of all international students. Canada has had an international student compliance system in place since 2014, requiring designated learning institutions to report twice a year on whether international students are enrolled and attending classes as required. The system is designed to prevent non-compliant students from abusing study permits and to promptly identify any suspicious activity.
