Mr. Speaker, the future of our country lies in a well educated citizenry, yet there was nothing in the budget to help students access post-secondary education. They will continue to face mounting debts as they did during the Liberal years.
Today student debt stands at $20 billion in Canada. Why should a post-secondary education only go to those who are well off?
When will the minister strive to close the prosperity gap and honestly help working families with post-secondary education? Scholarships just do not cut it.
