Why is Canada rushing all these visa initiatives? They've experiencing sizable issues with fraudulent student visas (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-64988228) which could be resolved with something as simple as having universities submitting paperwork to the immigration agency. Can they really handle reviewing 10,000 more cases on an expedited basis?

Oh those were not universities. Those were what we call in Canada "immigration mills or diploma mills" sun standard educational institution with a very high tuition fees and low bar of entry. It's money for citizenship scheme run by Canada. Cheap below minimum wage workers leading to wage suppression is the result.
