Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship of Canada Marc Miller has just announced a further nation-wide cut of 10% to the number of international student permits that will be approved. We are joined by BC Federation of Students Chairperson Jessie Niikoi for her perspective on how this will impact students. Associate professor of political science at the University of the Fraser Valley also weighs in with how this decision may impact different aspects of the economy, such as jobs and housing costs. We ask you: how the latest cuts to international student permits will impact the province?

Next, Meta has announced new restrictions for teen Instagram accounts in an effort to protect teens online. CEO of the Online Exploitation Institute Tiana Sharifi joins us. We ask parents to call in to explain if they feel that these measures will be enough to protect youth online.
