Did you know?
In 2012, 60,000 new international students
started post secondary studies in Canada in
2012
Did you know?
It is expected that a significant number of the
international students who started their university
studies in Canada 2012 will not finish because
they will either drop out or fail.
Reasons for this high drop out/
failure rate among international
students…
Culture Shock and
Homesickness
Can’t Handle the Freedom of being
away from home
There was a program students
could take before staring
university that would prepare
them for these kinds of
challenges, such that the only
challenge they faced at
university was the subject matter
itself
Imagine If…
It already exists
You Don’t have to Imagine It…

Do your Clients Need a Work
Permit to Intern / Work / Volunteer
in Canada?
BASIC RULE:
Anyone who wants to “Work” in Canada must first
obtain a “Work Permit”
“Work” is an activity for which wages are earned or that
competes directly with activities of Canadians in the Canadian
labour market.
Test: Will they get paid or will they be doing something that a
Canadian should really have an opportunity to do?
 Examples of “Work” include : “Unpaid employment done for the
purpose of obtaining work experience such as an internship or practicum
normally done by a student”
 Examples of “non-work activity:
 unpaid volunteer work that is part-time and “incidental to the main reason the person is
in Canada” – eg. Being a Big Brother, sitting on the board of a charity institution,
volunteering at a fund raising event…
 Volunteering for the National Parks – not taking away an opportunity from a Canadian
Canada’s Work Permit

Why Tamwood Presentation (all divisions)
Did you Know
 "voluntourism" was mentioned as one of the
three top trends in volunteering as part of the
United Nations State of the World's
Volunteerism Report.
Did you Know
 Parks Canada manages 36 National Parks,
several of which have been designated “World
Heritage Sites” and BC Parks has 202 parks
just in the southern coastal area of BC and
only one conservation officer.
Did you Know
 Both Parks Canada and BC Parks have lost
millions of dollars of funding for their
conservation projects in the last two years and
more cuts are expected.
 This is having a huge impact on the ability of
Park’s staff to care for the parks and protect
the parks and animals who live there.
Imagine if
You could bring international volunteers to
Canada and set them up to work with BC
Parks and Parks Canada helping with
conservation projects?
We have done just that!
