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.

I disagree-i actually think all student loan debt should be forgiven because education should be free to help people advance and contribute to society, and pursue better opportunities without this big financial burden.
@93RQQQP3yrs3Y
No, but lessen the cost of post-secondary school
@93RNLD93yrs3Y
The amount of student loan debt given up should depend on the students success in school
@93RNFNT3yrs3Y
reduce interest rates and up to $15,000
@Alsannahlyse3yrs3Y
For students with 75% or higher.
@92NRKDT3yrs3Y
Why should student debt be forgiven?
@8VV3BLT4yrs4Y
Maybe remove student loan interest and increase the grace period before the first required payment.
@8VSD69M4yrs4Y
@8VP6QRX4yrs4Y
No, but I think they could start between $5000-$1000
@9D246K72yrs2Y
No. If you can’t afford, don’t spend it
@9CMYDJ52yrs2Y
I think that it shouldn't have as high as an intrest rate, and it can't affect your credit score.
@9CMHVCS2yrs2Y
dependant on the financial situation of the person
@9CMHHXG2yrs2Y
For low-income students, reduce the interest rate and if they have good grades forgive a certain amount of loan debt.
Occasionally, only for low income students who show promise or for students with excellent grades
