Me as a tax payer, I demand that more of my tax dollars are diverted to support education. Ideally, I want a system similar to Denmark and France, where University is almost entirely funded by tax dollars.

I make a decent living, and I demand some of my money is spend to help young people and give them the opportunity to make a future for themselves. It's the Canadian way ! It ought to be anyway.

Spend the money wisely though, and keep waste to a minimum.
