This website is a testimony to the problems Canadian Student Loan borrowers experienced from approximately 1996 to 2008 and until their loans were paid off.

The privatization of the Student Loans system by the Chretien and Martin Liberal governments broke the system and defaulted thousands of borrowers who were trying to pay their loans. There were even stories of suicide due to the harassment of borrowers.

Read the report that I prepared back in 2007 here. Canada Student Loans-The Need for Change Fortunately the new Conservative government at the time revamped the program and fixed the system for new borrowers, but borrowers under the previous program were left with ruined credit and continued harassment from debt collectors.

I call on the Canadian Government to apologize to the borrowers affected by this fiasco and make amends.

Unfortunately the Liberal government is again clobbering the Education system with their changes to International Student Visas. Yes, there's a problem, but instead of a well thought out plan, they have pulled the emergency brake on the train causing a derailment. This has introduced unprecedented instability for both private and public education institutions who serve both international and local students.

Universities have been forced to cancel programs and layoff hundreds if not thousands of full-time and contract instructors.

Again, the Liberal government has messed up the education environment.

i am new in here, i don't know if this is the right place to post this... i've been receiving a recorded call EVERYDAY saying some kind of credit company entered in contract with some kind of company, asking to contact 1-866-801-1526.  I read some previous posts in this forum on this number, but, is this a scam or not?  cause i do not have to pay my student loan yet, and i don't recall any tickets or fines that i haven't pay... i am worried about this.

A search on the net suggests that this number is an automatic dialer calling you...

Likely CBCL

Be careful about "not having to pay your student loan yet" perhaps you've been defaulted without your knowing it.

I've also heard about calls for 407 toll fees.

go to google and type in the number 1-866-801-1526... there are some postings at http://forums.redflagdeals.com/archive/index.php/t-92851.htm l


Try this link within Canada StudentDebt
http://canadastudentdebt.ca/forum_posts.asp?TID=1016&KW=866% 2D801%2D1526

or go to the search option at the top of the forum and search "message body" for 866-801 that will find you other posts...

It may be a traffic violation, speeding ticket or something else other than a student loan...

ok, i finally called that number and the guy who answered the call wasn't really patient and with baaaaaaaaaaddddd attitude.  he first asked me the phone number with the area code (he didn't even present himself or anything like that) i asked him what sorta company it is, and he answered so fast that i couldn't understand, so i asked him again.  but he was said "this is the last time i am asking for your phone number and area code"  so, i gave it to him and he said that they were looking for "xx" i said nobody in this household with this name, he repeated the name again, i gave him the same answer again.  He said "i'll take your number out of the list" and hanged up.  ????????? i still donno what's happening, but anyway, today, i didn't get that call again.
