Thank you for your question.
I am going to give a very brief description of this complex issue.
First, since we are in a public institution, the funding system is regulated by the ministère de l'Enseignement supérieur, which determines the tuition fees to be paid by international students.
Second, most of that money transits through the CEGEP, if I may put it that way, but goes back to the provincial ministry, so in the CEGEPs there are none of what are called deregulated fees.
This funding system is somewhat more complex, but that is the broad outline.
