Jagmeet Singh, leader of the NPD party, proposes forgiving up to $20,000 of student loan debt and doubling student grants, as well as giving new graduates a five-year grace period for federal loan payments. This is based on the fact that, according to studies, in recent years, numerous students have been unable to repay their academic loans.

This one depends on the specific living conditions that students that have student loans currently live in.
@9TC77NN7mos7MO
I would support forgiving student loan debt for students who are low income and/or with excellent grades, provided that those students are required to work in that province where the loans were given.
@9T5KD4M7mos7MO
The government should focus on the unnecessarily bureaucratic education system and recognise foreign degrees.They should assist in paying for secondary education and reduce institutions overall profit from student fees.

The thing with forgiving some student loans is that the students will not have to work for the money for school. The problem with this being is a simple one. Making students pay for the debt will result in life skills that money cant buy. Skills like handling money, spending, and responsibility. Forgiving 2000 dollars is also just a large sum of money that the government could be spending on actual problems. you would have to be a monkey to belive that the government should forgive 20.000 dollars of student loan debt.
@9FGPFZS2yrs2Y
No, but students should get leniency
@95D9LYK3yrs3Y
I think that all student debt should be abolished
@8VSTF9W4yrs4Y
yes, if you are working in your education field
@99MR6J32yrs2Y
Yes, if the student has the reasonable potential to give back to society but is unable to because of debt.
@99JZ5QK2yrs2Y
yes, but for students with lower grades, or lower income
