International students in Calgary staged a 22-day protest that concluded after Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) officials conducted status checks. The demonstration, which began in response to proposed changes affecting work permit eligibility, saw participants gather in public spaces to voice concerns. Protesters argued the policy adjustments would limit their ability to work while studying. The standoff ended when CBSA officers arrived to verify participants’ immigration status. No arrests were reported. The protest highlighted growing tensions among international students regarding immigration regulations. Authorities emphasized that the status checks were routine and aimed at ensuring compliance with immigration laws. The resolution marks the end of a prolonged demonstration that drew attention to the challenges faced by foreign students in Canada.
