Abstract

The adverse reaction to the Economic Council's proposal last year to increase tuition fees for higher education was not surprising. Students in post-secondary institutions, and the families of which they are part, comprise a significant and growing proportion of the Canadian population. Recent growth in enrolment in post-secondary institutions has been dramatic. This article will go on to explain the numerous factors that account for these changes and will also direct a number of critical but largely unresolved questions that these fundamental changes have also given rise to.
