Jagmeet Singh, leader of the NPD party, proposes forgiving up to $20,000 of student loan debt and doubling student grants, as well as giving new graduates a five-year grace period for federal loan payments. This is based on the fact that, according to studies, in recent years, numerous students have been unable to repay their academic loans.

Yes if the person remains in the country and commits to some time contributing to Canadian workforce. Particularly in areas of great need
@B374ZCM1wk1W
Yes for low income students. Also students could have their income calculated based solely on what they themselves earn, if their parent(s) or guardian(s) are not providing them with financial aid.
