Thank you, Chair.
It is difficult to say how many students would not be going to school without this measure. What we do know is that some of those in repayment, those who have gone to school and then are in repayment, are struggling with rising costs. As you know, in Canada student aid is provided by the federal government and provinces in a sixty-forty split, usually. Many of the provinces have already eliminated interest on their student loans to make it more affordable for those who are struggling to repay their student loans.
