New spending documents show the government is giving up on debts from 31,658 students after “reasonable efforts to collect the amounts owed.”I guess "honouring your debts" is a relic of the patriarchy. Welcome to Justin's "post national" state.
It is the fourth time in the last five years that the government has written off outstanding student loans.

The heads of the Ryerson Students' Union have been given one week to explain approximately $250,000 in credit card spending, which critics say includes numerous questionable expenditures over an eight-month period.**********
The expenditures allegedly date back to May 2018, when Ram Ganesh began his term as President. Ganesh and Vice President Savreen Gosal took over the student union's credit card and began using it themselves.
UPDATE: Hundred thousand here, hundred thousand there...
...pretty soon you're talkin' real money...
The dollar figure at the heart of a spending scandal at Ryerson University has now soared beyond half a million.Sounding kinda third-worldy to me.
