Quebec is doubling tuition for out-of-province students, more than half of whom come from Ontario, saying taxpayers shouldn’t subsidize English-speaking people who leave after graduating.
Tuition for Canadians outside Quebec will jump to $17,000 from $8,992, Higher Education Minister Pascale Déry announced Friday. She said the government will charge universities $20,000 for each international student they recruit and direct that money only to francophone universities.
