Watch as this cap disproportionately affects students going to good schools with proper admissions processes (UBC, UofT, McGill, Waterloo) and does nothing for the massive "degree mill" industry in Canada.

This is Trudeau solving the symptoms without solving the problem. As always.

Edit: my criticism was premature.

Good fucking job Trudeau.
