I know it's ...Here's my idea on education:<br /><br />I know it's a provincial jurisdiction but from a funding level, jointly, I propose the following.<br /><br />Any Canadian student who wants to go to university (as far as the Phd level) or anyone who wants to pursue a trade to earn a living would have their entire tuition picked up by the government.<br /><br />Once they enter the work force, they would pay an incremental tax percentage during their entire working life. That tax would both pay for their own education as well as fund the program for future generations.<br /><br />It's basically a perpetuity that is paid to the government for the education you've received.<br /><br />It would require a large upfront investment but if we are to be serious about the need for a better educated nation, we have to start offering ideas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
