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.

so here's an update, pathetic though it is...

my bloodwork was uneventful - my thyroid is still techincally fine but still on the low end of normal. he will do the iodine test when i go in next.  at least i'm not anemic.

and i wont be taking paxil any time soon.  siberian ginseng and st johns wort for a few weeks and see how they go over.

still waiting to get an appointment with the specialist - apparently the waiting list is very very long - maybe by christmas, if i'm lucky.

not much of an update, but thats all there is for now. i'll keep you posted.

Hang in there, Mom. Keep your friends and family close, ok. They are what everyone needs when times get stressful.
