Quebec in Canada has a sweet system where their colleges(CEGEPs) are free and you can obtain 2 year degrees and if you want, pursue a university education which is also the cheapest in all of Canada, though that might change with the government and the students at war with each other

well hold on a minute:

first of all, it might be the cheapest on paper but Quebec is still the most taxed province in Canad so in the end it is not the cheapest per say.

then, the quality of said colleges (Cegeps) is far from high: you got so many people who absolutely CAN'T speak or write properly, do not know the capital of their own province (or even own country) and some go as far as not be able to tell on which continent is Argentina!!

Yeah but you have stupid people like that in Ontario and everywhere too! They just haev to spend less in Quebe :D. I wouldn't say Quebec education system is perfect but it is the best in Canada in my opinion.

That's another thing that bugs me about the quebec gov't though, if they're cutting spending to social programs they should also cut taxes, I thought you folks paid the highest taxes BECAUSE the province wanted better social services. Did anyone make a thread about the Quebec protests yet?

great website on some problems with Canadian education system: http://educationisaright.ca/

Free education is very much possible and relatively affordable, most OECD countries have it.

Quebec in Canada has a sweet system where their colleges(CEGEPs) are free and you can obtain 2 year degrees and if you want, pursue a university education which is also the cheapest in all of Canada, though that might change with the government and the students at war with each other

Education is a right - not a privilege, if you disagree then free education won't really make sense, but when we look at an economy where 70-80 percent of jobs require a university education we need to realize making university accessible and affordable, and eventually free, should be a high priority for the government. An educated population also benefits the nation - we don't want America to actually turn into Idiocracy do we?


The "free education"  I am referring to is a 2 year or 4 year college degree or a 4 year university degree.  No, not everyone is entitled to that because there are people out there dumb as a bag of hair who will waste resources .  Someone who can't do simple math has a RIGHT to a free university education?  Oh please, thats really who you want teaching your children or as your health care provider?  You would all have NO standards other than a warm body and waste millions and millions on trying to educate them.

If you're dumb as a bag you wouldn't get in, and would have to work harder to get in and eventually become smart enough to get a degree, and then you'd become a contributor to society, which would be good as that person wouldn't stay dumb, but that's really a bad argument because it's not about those people - it's about the people that work jobs to cut down on their debt and pay their student loans and don't get good grades because of it. In regards to your point about Primary and Secondary education, the entire system needs to be fixed from primary to post secondary, not just one or the other.

In Canada we're seeing students graduate with 20-40,000 dollar loans to the government, which is terrible(though not as bad as the american system!) and they're punished for trying to work off those debts during their schooling because they get less grants if they do, and there's so many other expenses associated with university with all the price gouging, especially residences and as this article shows, textbooks. For a throwaway psych class in first year I had to pay like 150 bucks! It was ridiculous!

The last thing I have ever felt entitled to was anyone else paying for my education after high school or handing me a "well paying job" because I had the degrees.  People don't need a college/uni education to get a well paying job, they do need a decent work ethic and enough brains to see where there is a demand though.

:bow:

I pay 1/3 of my income to taxes my parents pay more and STILL we have to pay upfront tuition fees? I'll be paying for my children's tuition fees AND pay exorbitant taxes?

It's a matter of priorities, not entitlement. Canada at least could wipe out student debt with 16 billion dollars, which sounds like a lot but really that's 10 billion LESS than amount the government spent on F-35 jets for the army last year.

Something you also need to look at
is the fact that some universities are not raising tuition fees because they need to, but rather because they need to "stay competitive." If you look at the budget for the university I attend, it's vague and it's like that so that the university administration doesn't have to justify the increases, they just don't want to "miss the train," according to the president of the university.

How is getting another season "cancelling" a show?
If it doesn't hit six seasons and a movie they're cancelling community.

they might pick Community and Parks and Rec up again next year (especially if fan outrage happens).
Let's hope so :/

oh come on, Cena winning would've been okay if it at least a little made sense. He literally came back in the last couple minutes and won. that ain't right.


but what god hand said, all the matches i saw (db vs shaemus onwards) were fucking awesome, even brock vs cena was good, they gave us super cena and they gave us super cena getting his ass kicked.
