Ontario's Student Aid: $8.3M Misspent, 900 Cases Investigated
Description
New data reveals Ontarios student aid program disbursed $13.1 million to ineligible students in 2024-2025, with most cases stemming from false information, incorrect statuses, or fraudulent studies. Despite this, the program remains largely sustainable, with government officials implementing stricter measures and shifting towards more loans. However, critics argue that the government is using rare cases to justify cutting aid, potentially leaving low-income students in debt. The debate continues as the government strives for accountability while ensuring students financial stability.
