CANADORE STUDENTS TO GET CASH BACK

Canadore College students may get a bit of a break when it comes to extra expenses caused by the

recent strike.

 

The province is making sure colleges create a dedicated support fund to help full-time students offset the

cash crunch they may have suffered during the break.

 

Canadore President George Burton describes what the support fund covers.

Those students who are not returning to class because of the strike will receive a full tuition refund. This refund also will apply to apprentices who were not able to complete their training because of the strike.

 

Students can apply for this support through their college and the fund will not affect any OSAP loans.

I was born and raised in the former Borough of East York (now part of Toronto), a friendly community with small-town roots. After attending Ryerson’s Electrical Technology program in Toronto, I became involved in the family’s retail electronics business, eventually taking it over. During that time, I became involved in a number of community groups including the East York Community Centre Liaison Committee, and sitting on the board of the Toronto Police 54 Division liaison committee, as well as chairing the Pape Village Business Improvement Area. In 2007, I decided to pursue a career in radio broadcasting, enrolling in Humber College’s radio broadcasting program. It was a wonderful opportunity and something I’ve wanted to do since high school. After working at a number of stations in both Ontario and Alberta, I am excited to work alongside with the great team at 103.3 Moose FM in beautiful Parry Sound.
