Madam Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for the question. I have two universities in my community and I hear from them all the time.
In the last three budgets this government has addressed some of the concerns surrounding student debt. Clearly, it is a topic that we have discussed. There are the millennium scholarships. We have changed the RESPs as well as RRSPs, which can now be used at any time for lifelong learning.
This is an issue that we need to work on together with the provinces. While we transfer money to the provinces, we see very different approaches. Quebec and Ontario have deregulated tuition fees, which has had an impact on students.
I believe that the federal government is trying to be part of the solution.
