This is a brilliant suggestion. As a former Quebecer who once worked to bring out-of-province students to McGill, I can affirm that getting youth from the rest of Canada to study in Montreal contributes to a better Canadian appreciation of the unique place of Quebec within the country. I don't believe the Quebecois are as paranoid about the loss of their language and culture as their Premier pretends to be-- this is a cheap shot that only does harm, IMHO. Yes, the federal Liberals should take note. (And, btw, please don't leave Bishop's out of your narrative. It's an excellent small anglophone university situated in a beautiful part of the province.)

Conservative premiers across the country are the gifts that keep on giving for Trudeau.

I'm not sure why this is such a big deal. In the US, state colleges charge more to out-of-state students. Universities in Canada charge an arm and a leg for foreign students to study here. What is the difference?
