We noted last year that there was a surge in traffic to the Canadian Immigration website as well as to Canadian University websites from Amerian IPs. The surge of interest was not temporary curiosity, as the Associated Press is reporting that there has been a huge increase in American applications to Canadian Colleges/Universities. The University of Toronto has received 70% more applications than it had by this time last year, while there has been a 34% increase at McMaster University in Hamilton.
