Ford calls students naive. They’re smart enough to know exactly what’s happening: they’re being punished by a cruel policy for this government’s mismanagement of OSAP.

It’s time to bring caring back into politics. Reinstate and reverse the cuts to OSAP now.

You can count on Martin Regg Cohen to cover for Fathead Hash, and to throw in a tongue bath.

"Misguided bid to save money" is an outright, dirty, bold-faced lie.

In fact, it's laughable. 🤣

Ontario's OSAP freeze is forcing private college students to make impossible decisions between continuing school and paying next month’s rent, with some saying the blanket ban unfairly punishes all for the actions of a few.

Solidarity with students across the province who are walking out of their schools today to protest Doug Ford’s cruel cuts to OSAP and post-secondary funding.

We’re calling on the government to reinstate OSAP immediately.

Why Doug Ford’s OSAP scandal goes beyond private colleges
archive.ph/hwnr0
“Folks, it was in the red, it was just not sustainable,” the premier proclaimed last February: “I’ve heard some nightmare stories … about kids going out there buying fancy watches and cologne” while enrolling in “basket-weaving courses.” Raising the alarm, the government claimed that overall OSAP funding was surging out of control without identifying the true culprit — a private sector system that was siphoning funds away from the public sector. In fact, it was a false signal from Ford. The data tells a damning tale, as revealed by Allison Jones of The Canadian Press after she filed a freedom of information request. The real problem was not public overuse but private abuse. In the 2023-24 fiscal year, OSAP grants to students in private career colleges amounted to $554 million; that ballooned to $994 million a year later. About 95 per cent of all grant money went to the private system, where the average student received nearly three times more than their public counterparts

More money funnelled to Ford's pals. Now he's blaming students who survive on OSAP rather than going after the private school that scammed millions.

I'm sick of the claim OSAP students live the high life. We fucking well didn't. Heard it 1980 and it was bullshit then.

"Stick there and study." - Doug Ford, talking about student walkouts re: OSAP.

What the fuck would he know about sticking around to study. He dropped out of Humber after two months.

Post-secondary students across #Ontario walked out of classes to protest changes to #OSAP introduced by the Doug Ford government.
‼️ Bill 33 reduces the grant portion of OSAP funding from up to 85% to 25%, increasing the share students receive as loans.
