In the wake of CBC's report on three private colleges catering to international students which recently filed for creditor protection, the province's higher education minister said she plans to put in place measures "to ensure that this type of situation never occurs again."
Despite facing allegations of financial wrongdoing, a former school board administrator helped set up and operate three private colleges in Quebec for foreign students. Now the schools are under creditor protection, and hundreds of students are waiting for their money back.
A Quebec private college urged international students to pay more money only weeks before filing for creditor protection. Now, they find themselves stranded and because they are no longer attending school, unable to work.
