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.

sue - you know someone with fibromyalgia on disability - that means there IS hope for me.  guess i;ll have to keep after my doc and see tht specialist after christmas.  i can relate to people thinking you're a snob - i get it all the time, just because i can't mentally keep up all the time, i drift away...and yet i am an intelligent educated person unable to get a job.  good thing my head is attatched bcause i forget everything else.  it took me almost 20 minutes to type this response, between forgetting and not having cooperative fingers.

Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!  A good friend of mine is on disability , since she was in her late 30's.  Mind you it took her near enough 2 years to get approved, but it was for fibromyalgia - that is her only problem.  If you have any specific questions you want me to ask her, just let me know.
As for us drifting away all the time, I describe it like my brain switches as fast as the channels on the TV when a man is in charge of the remote control!

This web site has some basic info about Adult ADHD, its pretty interesting  http://www.aafp.org/afp/20001101/ 2077.html   They must have had a documentary TV crew following me around for the last 40 years!!

(I thought I replied to this already, must have been in Jamaica again!)
