Many students travel outside of their home province for post-secondary education, so it would be easier for students if it were all the same.

 @93D4TTXNew Democraticfrom Manitoba  answered…3yrs3Y

It should be a provincial and federal responsibility

 @8YTPWKFNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

I think both provincial and federal should be responsible.

 @8W2MDW8New Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

It depends what province you are coming from.

 @8VN42K2New Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

School should be free to everyone

 @8T3RW2VNew Democraticfrom Manitoba  answered…4yrs4Y

It depends on wealth

 @8T3RJ2ZNew Democraticfrom Manitoba  answered…4yrs4Y

Depends on your wealth.

 @9C8LRZ2New Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Both should be responsible as well as the municipality.

 @98LM36Qfrom California  answered…2yrs2Y

Local, with Provincial and Federal support

 @8QDT6XCNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Provincially managed with federal redistribution of funds to ensure equality

 @8V7CBJQNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

Both provincially and federally funded.

 @8V6K63MNew Democraticfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

both federal and provincial

 @8V28JMZNew Democraticfrom Nova Scotia  answered…4yrs4Y

They should work together to fund every person who is attending post secondary education for free or for a reduced cost. The curriculum should be left up to the people who know what they're talking about.

 @8TWGQF8New Democraticfrom Nova Scotia  answered…4yrs4Y

Shared responsibility with the majority falling on the province.

 @8RF8P64New Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…4yrs4Y

shared but also between the student

 @8Q6Z6HVNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

No, but the cost of tuition should be reduced.

 @ZaneThind17New Democraticfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

Both wouldn't be bad.

Kamala Harris is considering running for president again in 2028

Kamala Harris has been lying low since her defeat in the presidential race, unwinding with family and senior aides in Hawaii before heading back to the nation’s capital.But privately, the vice president has been instructing advisers and allies to keep her options open — whether for a possible 2028 presidential run, or even to run for governor in her home state of California in two years. As Harris has repeated in phone calls, “I am staying in the fight.”She is expected to explore those and other possible paths forward with family members over the winter holiday season, according to five people in the Harris inner circle, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal dynamics. Her deliberations follow an extraordinary four months in which Harris went from President Joe Biden’s running mate to the top of the ticket, reenergizing Democrats before ultimately crashing on election night.“She doesn’t have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months,” said one former Harris campaign aide. “The natural thing to do would be to set up some type of entity that would give her the opportunity to travel and give speeches and preserve her political relationships.”“She doesn’t have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months,” said one former Harris campaign aide. “The natural thing to do would be to set up some type of entity that would give her the opportunity to travel and give speeches and preserve her political relationships.”Harris concedes: 'We must accept the results of this election'SharePlay VideoMost immediately, Harris and her advisers are working to define how and when she will speak out against Donald Trump and reassert her own role in the Democratic Party. Closing out her term as vice president, she’s set to preside over certifying the November election she lost to Trump, and then appear at the once-and-future president’s inauguration on Jan. 20.“There will be a desire to hear her voice, and there won’t be a vacuum for long,” a person close to Harris said.At the same time, Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, will have a long checklist to plow through before they leave the Naval Observatory for good.They have to decide whether they’ll take up permanent residence at their home in Los Angeles, or establish a base elsewhere. No matter where Harris and her family live, some around her have expressed concerns about safety, as her Secret Service protection expires six months after stepping away.
