Thanks for the question. I think it's an important one.
Coming to you from the Durham region of the suburbs of Toronto, I can tell you that we disproportionately have students who are new Canadians. They are the first in their families to attend educational institutions. We do not have a lot of entitlement, or we have virtually none.
I can tell you in those situations.... We just came through convocation last week. I hear stories all the time of our young people who want to go into graduate programs and need to take time off to get enough money in order to fund those studies. It's having a very real impact.
The future of our country surrounds me, and I'm uplifted by those students every day. What we need to do is figure out a way whereby we can invest in their futures, understanding that it's the collective Canadian future.
We're not moving electric vehicles further, we're not doing things with quantum and we're not tackling climate change unless we have all of the most brilliant minds, and if we're truly committed to diversity, we have to see that there's an economic lens on this.
