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.

Hi! everyone!

I am at the end of my rope with CBCL..They crossed the fine lines of what is acceptable practices in their way of collecting money..They went so far as to contact my landlord and leave my financial situation for everyone to hear therefore exploiting it..They have made my life a living hell..I had to change my number to an unlisted one and when i found out that they called my landlord I called them back..Believe it or not they took the opportunity to dial *69 to find out the last number called therefore again finding out my number..How low can these people go to make our lives a living hell..Thir practices should be outlawed..I basically told them to deal with Johnny and stop calling me otherwise I will have them charged with harrassment..I can't take this anymore...I want to know if anyone has had similar experiences with these miserable unhappy people CBCL if so please write to me at SylvieHache007@msn.com

CBCL is at fault on all six counts.

Hey michelle who at cbcl are you dealing with? I
have'nt had too many arguements with them as I told
them from the start that I don't tolerate insults or
respond to threats. When they start yelling I warn
them once , then hang up and phone them right
back, my record is about nine times with one lady,
and she only wanted my phone number. Then I got
passed on to some guy with a bigger voice, which I
responded by setting the receiver down and going
away for a few minutes. Sometimes you have to play
by their rules to " soften " them up a bit.
