They let post secondary schools charge sky-high tuition fees to subsidize Canadian students, and many of those students came in with no intention of studying, but instead working to get permanent residency.
All of the above are a result of poor government oversight and policy making.
I don't blame the Indians coming over here and here's why:
If you live in a country like India, and someone offers you an opportunity to go to Canada (or the USA, or Europe, etc) 99% of people will obviously take it.
The entire culture and economy of India is based on handshake deals, loopholes and corruption/bribes. People over there don't follow the rules like most of us do in Canada. In a country of a billion people, people feel like they can do what they want and there is little chance of ever being noticed or caught. It's a society very much like The Hunger Games.
So yeah, the Indians come over here because they reaized they can enroll in school (or even fake school) because it's a back door to PR. To them, that's just normal stuff.
And they don't see any issues with abusing the TFW program either because if they were back home, everyone would be doing the same thing.
Not saying they are totally blameless, but the gov't ultimately started this mess.

also the immigration companies that take advantage of them by selling them lies and extorting them.
if they didnt make canada out to be some sort of promised land where you can easily get work and buy a house, raise a family, live like a canadian, etc... then this problem wouldn't have gotten so out of control.
if they only knew that they would have to be living with roommates for years before even having a chance to have their own room or own apartment, and living paycheque to paycheque and probably never paying off their debts at home from people who lent them money to come here in the first place, many of them wouldn't come.
