International students in Canada can face considerable obstacles and sources of stress. There can be financial strain, including finding affordable accommodation. Finding meaningful part-time work can be difficult. There is also concern about exploitation by employers, landlords and criminals posing as  immigration consultants.

Human Rights Magazine looks into the issue in this episode hosted by Napas Thein, with technical support and outreach by  Jing Xiao.
