Canada in the Post 9/11 Period  \nRichard E. Mueller University of Lethbridge  \nAbstrAct  \nThe terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, have resulted in the increased scrutiny of both immigrants and non-immigrants entering the United States. The latter group includes students who enter the country on temporary visas to complete programs of higher education. Depending on the source, the number of foreign students in the United States has remained constant or fallen since 2001, and there has been a large decline among students from predominantly Muslim countries.  \nCanada, by contrast, has relaxed its entry requirements for some foreign students and there has been a concerted effort among Canadian universities to increase foreign student enrolment. We find that the number of foreign students in Canada did increase following 9/11, especially those from predominantly Muslim countries. We discuss some of the implications of this increase in foreign students for Canadian universities and the Canadian labour market. Although these results support the hypothesis that changes in U.S. immigration policy are responsible, causality cannot be inferred from our data. This underlines the need for better data to adequately address the post-secondary education choices of international students.  \nrésumé  \nLes attaques terroristes du 11 septembre 2001, ont entraîné unevérification plus minutieuse des immigrants et non-immigrants entrant  \n16 CJHE / RCES Volume 39, No. 1, 2009  \naux États-Unis. Le dernier groupe est composé des personnes qui entrent aux États-Unis, avec des visas provisoires, dans le but de suivre des études supérieures. Tout dépendamment de la source, le nombre deces étudiants est demeuré constant ou a diminué . Le plus grand déclinest constaté parmi les étudiants en provenance des pays musulmans. Contrairement aux États-Unis, le Canada rend ses conditions d’admissibilité moins contraignantes pour certains étudiants étrangers. De plus, il y a eu un effort concerté parmi les universités canadiennes d’augmenter l’inscription des étudiants étrangers. Nous constatons que le nombre d’étudiants étrangers au Canada a augmenté suite aux événements du 9/11, particulièrement ceux des pays à prédominance musulmane. Nous discutons des implications de cette augmentation pour les universités canadiennes et le marché du travail canadien. Bien que l’hypothèse que les changements de la politique américaine enmatière d’immigration en soient les responsables, la causalité n’est pas démontrée par nos données. Ceci souligne le besoin de meilleures données pour démontrer de manière plus adéquate le choix des étudiants internationaux en matière d’éducation post-secondaire.  \nIntroductIon And bAckground  \nSince the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, there has been a concerted effort by the United States to restrict access to foreign nationals who are deemed to pose a threat to its security. Although foreign students who enter the United States are not restricted by numerical limits, they are subjected to increased scrutiny (Szelenyi, 2003) and may perceive the academic environment in the United States to be less hospitable (Altbach, 2004) . Students from the Middle East, especially those from predominantly Muslim countries (hereafter PMCs) most closely identified with terrorism, may undergo even greater scrutiny when entering the country. This heightened scrutiny may well have an impact on permanent immigration to the United States, but it will certainly have a profound effect on those seeking admission using shortterm (or non-immigrant) visas, such as students (Camarota, 2002) .
