At its high point, I saw approximately 30-35 Canadore students and representatives from an advocacy group. In 2017-18, Canadore College in North Bay, Ont., made $12.25 million in tuition revenue from domestic students and $41.3 million from international students. In 2022-23, domestic tuition revenue rose to $14.5 million and international tuition skyrocketed to $131.5 million. The quota is a maximum of two times the number of international students enrolled at the public college's home campus. North Bay-based Canadore College's private partner had 8.8 times the number of international students as the college itself; at Northern College in Timmins, Ont., the ratio was 8.6.
