|
| M-276 — January 29, 2007 — Ms. Savoie (Victoria) — That, in the opinion of the House, the government should take immediate steps to address the student debt crisis in Canada while enhancing accessibility and quality of post-secondary education, by: (a) adequately increasing federal transfers for post-secondary education that would enable every province to freeze or roll back tuition as well as re-invest in areas to enhance quality according to its particular needs and the needs of its students; (b) enhancing the current federal student loan remission program by simplifying and increasing eligibility, and by increasing the amount by which debts can be reduced; (c) creating a comprehensive federal student grant system to offset Canada student loans in every year of study and increase access for low- and middle-income students; (d) increasing the funding for such a federal student grant system by reallocating all expenditure for the Canada Education Savings Program, the Textbook Tax Credit, and the Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation upon its expiry in 2009; (e) overhauling the Canada student loan system, in consultation and collaboration with the provinces and territories and student organizations, to be more flexible, fair, and responsive to the needs of student borrowers; (f) enacting a Canada post-secondary education act to ensure stable federal funding and enshrine the principles of accessibility, quality, academic freedom, and universality for Canadian students in a public, not-for-profit post-secondary education system; and (g) restoring full funding for the Summer Career Placement Program, while expanding the scope of the program’s targeting to include at-risk youth and communities, not-for-profit employers and employers in rural and low-employment areas, students facing economic barriers to post-secondary education (rural, aboriginal, and low-income), and students with student loans. |
| M-277 — January 29, 2007 — Ms. Savoie (Victoria) — That, in the opinion of the House, the government should take immediate steps to address the approaching expiry of the Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation (CMSF), by: (a) immediately and formally announcing that the mandate of the CMSF will not be renewed; (b) rolling the full amount of the current CMSF budget into a national system of needs-based grants administered by Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC), with a long-term funding commitment from the government, fully implemented for the 2009-2010 academic year; (c) instructing HRSDC to complete a full study of the CMSF experience no later than January 31, 2008, to determine and implement any best practices and lessons learned in order to enhance access to post-secondary education and reduce student debt; and (d) undertaking consultation and negotiation with the provinces and territories in the 2008 calendar year to ensure that the new national grant system meets the particular needs of their students and does not lead to the clawback of existing provincial and territorial student aid programs. |
