As long as the aid has no malevolent alternative motives
more for international student, less for others

This shouldn’t be a set number. It should flex with the amount we are able to give after supporting the people in Canada. We cannot decrease because other country's rely on our help. But if we flex with our economy and deficit we could continue to help others and ourselves without sacrificing anyone.

Canada should work with other countries to help fund foreign aid, group effort rather then one country.
Decrease and put that funding into other areas that need it more such as veterans and homeless individuals
@shaelynj4yrs4Y
increase to all countries that need it or want it, but decrease to countries that promote hate
@8KQFHL74yrs4Y
Increase, but provide aid in the form of building industry, farms and infrastructure.
Fix Canadian funding like clearn drinking water for all first, and then other countries
Aid should be provided directly to the people in need (e.g. food, clothing, shelter, medicine). If the government receiving aid violates human rights or promotes terrorism, we shouldn't punish innocent suffering people. Aid to governments should stop.
Increase for countries in a severe crisis, such as Syria and Afghanistan.

I dunno. I don't really care about that.
