Cuts at Ontario Colleges Leading to Nearly 10,000 Job Losses, Union Says

ONTARIO, CANADA, JUL 09 – More than 8,000 jobs lost in Ontario colleges due to a 35% cut in international study permits, affecting academic, support, and administrative staff, arbitrator William Kaplan reported.

  • Close to 10,000 college faculty and staff in Ontario have lost or are projected to lose their jobs, according to the Ontario Public Service Employees Union.
  • The cuts are said to represent 'one of the largest mass layoffs in Ontario's history' amid a funding crisis in colleges, according to the union.
  • Nearly 1 in 10 Ontarians have experienced a campus closure in their community, affecting about 1.5 million people.
  • The union warns that layoffs and program suspensions will have generational impacts, stating that 'the province has been chronically underfunding post-secondary education,' as said by Hornick.
