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 im at the library again

im having serious probs with both provincial and federal.

Im getting the run around and im seriously pissed and stressed

Heres a summary:

I have been trying to get DR since febuary 9,2005

I have made a DR booklet with all my forms and have logged more than 39 hours trying to get debt reduction--this doesnt include any undocumented talks , nor does it include any posting on the internet, nor does it include calls to the ombudsman or my Mla(its around 169 hours if i include internet)

I have made a scoring system:

15mins=read forms

15=short talk

1 hour=long talk

2=travel to rev. canada and back to get tax assessment

1.5 hours=go to the bank and back

39 hours

I have talked to :

healther

bobby

michelle

lisa

mano--several times

roshon 67

donna

lori

jennifer

and today Dan, mano and patricia

I have constantly asked how to keep my loans out of default:

roshon said "cant answer, that question" on feb 9,2005

heather said "no reply"--date unknown

lisa: i asked what options exist after ir runs out ? she said "thought i would be working"

Timeline:

fed:

feb 9--ir declined

ordered fed dr forms

16 order forms again

-internet 2 times, bank 1 time

26-sent fed forms

mar4,rejected "need proof of income" march 2004 till now--i have zero,  received dr forms

11 rev cand tax asss:

-bank=sent

18 rejected

-no proof of income (i had zero)

30 got forms back

may 2

make interest only payments for both loans

resub and wait for tax assessment=6 weeks(so i can prove my income 2168 bucks in 2004)

may 16, 2005 send

Donna looking into it (unable to reach donna today)

: so i have applied 4 times

 

prov:

unclear but applied twice and now i got to reapply

my loan is in default eventhough i made "interest only payment"

-today, they said payment 335 interest only is under review and until it brought up to date im screwed out of dr

------------------------------------------------------------ ---

now for my prob:

today i got the run around and swore at mano, rbc, collections branch till he hung up

I dont have any money cept for borrowing 279 bucks so far to pay loans(253 and 106)--I dont have job or rent money yet but im willing to part with it to get some help

my provincial loans have gone into default:i made interest only payment on may 2, 2004--335 bucks but i still got a letter from arc accounts recovery corportion and talked to jennifer on may 16, 2005-they said error

I have constanly asked for a statement saying they made an error but they wont send me anything--all i get is threats

Today, i phoned mano, rbc, credit management: he said my payment is under review--"someone has the file" and i got to reapply for DR for the 4 time once my account is up to date

I thought that my interest only payment brought my account up to date and that they extended my payments to 15 years?

So what should i do to make these jokers to stop aggravating me: im spending all day and nights working on my student loans and it is taking away from my job search and making me very angry

------------------------------------------------------------ -------

Summary

1. need some help:

2 want to file complaint but dont know how--against rbc?

3 file complain with ombusdman ?

4 complaint with mla

5 prime minster--my aunt is shirley chan should i talk to her ?

6. how do i get my account up to date ?> I paid interest only payments on may 2, 2005  335 prov and 415 fed

i dont have job or income yet and am borrowing money ?

7. how do i get Dr if i get screwed : i believe i should get it since im so poor ?

8. I dont have enough to pay john so i post here but am willing to pay the 279 bucks-rather than pay loans

 

Hope this rambling makes sense but its better than punching more holes in wall ?

Ari for advice or help

I will come back tommorrow or sunday to the library and check

 

thanks

but that doesnt make sense since i have sent the app in 4 times

each time a different excuse

fed; said call lori, so i wated on the phone from 330-349 pm but she was gone
