[Podcast intro music plays] [Johal] Hi, I'm Rumneek Johal. I'm your host for today and this is Sources by PressProgress, the show where we talk to newsmakers and subject matter experts to go more in depth about the stories we cover. Sources is a proud member of the Harbinger Media Network. Today we're going to be talking about the international student crisis in Canada.

Screenshots of text messages sent to Manitobans. The text message begins with an image of an attack ad flyer about the Manitoba NDP. The text message says, "Hey it's Jen from the Canada Growth Council. Did you get this in the mail? It's a reminder for everyone who loves Manitoba to avoid electing Wab Kinew (a convicted criminal) and the NDP this fall. Wab Kinew and the NDP are an alliance with Justin Trudeau and Jagmeet Singh. And we can't afford 4 years of their work policies that will lead to more crime, higher taxes and the NDP driving our economy into the ground... just like last time! We can't trust Wab, Justin and Jagmeet to run our province. Spread the word! Authorized by the Canada Growth Council Inc. 1-800-883-1810."
