The not-so-secret part of the last years growth too is that most of it went where local schools are admitting mass amounts of foreign students - Brampton, Waterloo, Sault Ste Marie, etc. are all exploding because they have local diploma mills. Hamilton doesn't really have that as McMaster and Mohawk haven't really delved deep into the foreign student money pot.
