I think those are positive steps.
However, the reality is that, even if the rules change, those who want to exploit the system and take advantage of it will adjust their efforts, as well. Unfortunately, we're dealing with a lot of students from countries where Canada's relationship might not be the strongest right now. The Philippines is a great example of where we were able to make some bilateral improvements and encourage authorities to take on a bigger role in combatting fraud. With India, China and other countries right now, it might be a much more difficult situation.
I don't think it's as easy as measures will change things. I think it takes a coordinated effort on many stages to achieve that.
