The CAQ wants more international francophone students, and for them to stay after graduation. Many can\u0027t get visas, precisely because IRCC is worried they might stay
for denying visas to tenured professors from African nations wishing to attend conferences in Canada. Why would it be any less suspicious of their students?
Still, it’s exasperating to see Ottawa block an avenue toward real progress in Quebec — a route out of the anti-religious and linguistic paranoias that have come to dominate nationalist politics over the past 15 years. Those paranoias have combined to create a sort of demographic gridlock: The CAQ government wants all future immigrants to speak French before they arrive, for example, but there are only so many francophones who want to emigrate to Quebec, and many of them are very religious.
That will always rankle the miserable arch-paranoiacs who currently drive this agenda — the ultra-nationalist voices who dominate Quebec City talk radio and the Quebecor newspapers’ comment pages. “They want immigrants and their children to think and dream in French. And even that isn’t enough,” Quebec journalist Christopher Curtisthis week.
Sidelining those paranoiacs is a generational project that, polls suggest, Quebec’s younger generations will embrace. Accepting more young francophone immigrants — as many as possible — can only help.Article content It’s already happening, despite IRCC. “A growing number of foreign students settle in Quebec once they have obtained their degree,” Braham and Diallo note. “The number of post-graduation work permit holders tripled between 2015 and 2022. … The number of new permanent residents who graduated from a Canadian institution also tripled. … And these new permanent residents are integrating into the labour market better than before, the result of prior experience on Quebec soil.
