Quebec college facing $30-million fine for over-enrolling English students postpones first day

August 23, 2025

A Quebec college facing a $30-million fine for enrolling too many students in English-language programs, contravening the province’s language law, is postponing the first day of classes scheduled for Monday.

LaSalle College said the suspension is tied to the fine imposed on the Montreal school it deems “abusive” and Monday classes are cancelled, but the campus will remain open to students.

In a statement issued Friday, the college said the first day back-to-class will go ahead on Tuesday. The post-secondary institution assures the measure won’t have an impact on students’ academic careers.

In March of 2024, a middle-aged man was having a cigarette outside his Surrey, B.C., social housing complex when he noticed Jae Won Lee, a 23-year-old Australian-born permanent resident of Canada, lifting the cover off another resident’s motorcycle. The man approached Lee to ask what he was doing, to which Lee replied, “Mind your own business, old man.”Lee then pulled out a knife with a six-inch blade and stabbed the man’s arm before chasing him into the building’s lobby, where he stabbed him in the abdomen.
