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.

The government should give out tax free loans to students. These loans can then be repaid by a percentage of their wages, similar to an income tax, but instead be a repayment tax.
@B4TMDXM11hrs11H
Yes but with the requirements of 1) being a Canadian citizen and 2) actively maintaining an income to support day to day needs
