Demand for university education in Ontario is only growing, but funding is not keeping pace with the national average and cuts to student aid won't help Ontario families struggling with affordability. Read our budget response: ocufa.on.ca/press-releases/o…

NDP: Ford gets an F for failing Ontarians

Another budget from the Ford government - and once again, it misses the mark.
They say it’s about “protecting Ontario,” but it’s the same expensive recycled plan that isn’t working.
Affordability, health care, education, all going in the wrong direction.
After 8 long years, Ontarians deserve better. #onpoli

In its 2026 Ontario budget, the Ford government has committed to spending more than $41 million over three years on school resource officer (SRO) programs across the province. #ONpoli toronto.citynews.ca/2026/03/…

BREAKING: The Ford government is increasing Ontario's deficit to $13.8 billion -- 77% higher than the last projections.
It's an amount even the Finance Minister suggested he was uncomfortable with, and largely due to tax breaks.

Yesterday, thousands of students & workers joined @CFSON to send a clear message to @fordnation: #HandsOffOurEducation ✊️
OSAP cuts are a penalty on the poorest families. We need investment in education, not backroom economies benefiting insiders & corporate friends. #ONpoli

“[Ontario’s] funding announcements are out of touch with reality,” Cyrielle Ngeleka (@cfson) tells @JeyanTVO, responding to the province’s postsecondary funding plan — as OSAP shifts from mostly grants to mostly loans. Tonight at 8pm | Producer: @constvarlo
CFS-Ontario retweeted
Post-secondary students are organizing, and #OSSTF is proud to join them in demanding better!
On March 4 at 12:30 PM, students, instructors, parents, and community members will gather at Queen’s Park to demand NO cuts to OSAP and real investments in public education.
Join the rally hosted by @CFSON, outside of working hours, and send a clear message: Hands off our education.
CFS-Ontario retweeted
On March 4, university and college students are taking action at Queen's Park to say #HandsOffOurEducation.
Join @CFSON (outside of working hours) to say NO to tuition increases, NO to the cuts to OSAP, and YES to supporting students.
CFS-Ontario retweeted
Changes to the OSAP funding model now swap grants and loans. Students used to be eligible for up to 85% of money borrowed to be loans that did not have to be paid back. Now that max is 25% #ontario #onpoli #dougford #frankdomenic🍁
CFS-Ontario retweeted
The government should help students get ahead, not hold them back. The Ford government’s plan saddles young people with more debt, making it harder to buy a home, start a family, and build their future.
If we are serious about growing our economy and investing in our future, we need to lift young people up, not hold them back. The Liberal approach works. We give students grants, not debt.
CFS-Ontario retweeted
Doug Ford just ended the tuition freeze and cut OSAP grants.
More debt. Less support. During a cost-of-living crisis.
You deserve to graduate without a mountain of debt and find a good job - that's the bare minimum.
The Ontario NDP will fight to reverse this.
CFS-Ontario retweeted
BREAKING: The ford government is lifting the long-standing tuition freeze for college and university students, as part of its post secondary funding changes:
• Tuition: 2% increase per year for 3 years, then rate of 2% or 3-year inflation average
• PSE funding: $1.6 B per year, above the base $5.4 B
• OSAP: max 25% as a grant, minimum 75% as a loan (currently it’s 85% grant max 15% loan min)

Friends, yesterday, the Government of Ontario announced the biggest attack on tenants and co-op members in a generation.

ALT The image is divided into two main sections. The top section features a yellow background with a white rectangle containing the bold, black text "BILL 60 IS COMING." Below, there is a black background with the faces of two individuals partially visible, with their foreheads and eyes shown. Below them, a stylized shield with a cracked surface appears, divided into dark blue and red halves with a white geometric shape at the center. To the right of the shield, in large white text, it reads "PROTECT ONTARIO," and beneath that, in smaller yellow text, "LANDLORDS?"
