Should the federal government put a cap on university tuition rates?

YES - I think the Federal government should pay the full fee of Bachelor Degree program and 50% for Master's program (PHD is full responsibility of student). But all recipients must work 5 consecutive years within Canada or for a Canadian owned company; if they choose not to, then the full cost of university will have to be repaid within 5 - 8 years.

Yes and the government should work towards making tuition more affordable for post secondary students first while making the transition to free post secondary education.

No but they should reflect the department you're in and the funding that goes back into your own education

in canada, at least in NS, tuition is tied to multiple factors, but a lot of funding comes from the gov, in various ways. over the last couple of decades, the provincial government have been lowering the funding for universities, leading to some tuition increases. So how can the universities continue to function? Higher education is expensive, and research money, nor can donations be used to offset tuition, i believe. I say this as an employee of 2 separate universities spanning almost my entire adult working history, about 25 years.

Decrease inflation and overspending so our dollar is stronger. Make tuition relative to the schooling provided and the nature of the degree.

I believe that the government should for most courses cap the intuition rate. If the course is serious it might need more money, but access to knowledge shouldn't be so high.

Public universities should only charge admission administrative fees but private universities can charge whatever the market is willing to pay
