| Abstract | In this report, the Canadian Community College Association (CCCA) offers its rationale for urging the government of Canada to increase transfer payments to the provinces in support of postsecondary education by $2 billion per annum, as well as making an additional increase in transfer payments that would contribute to the future expansion of postsecondary capacity in Canada. The findings of a recent study made by the federal Labour Department indicates that some form of postsecondary training is required for 72% of the 1.3 million new jobs expected to be created in the Canadian economy between 1999 and 2004. Only 60% of jobs in 1998 required postsecondary training. The CCCA's submission to the Pre-Budget Consultations addresses four major priorities facing postsecondary institutions: (1) investing in colleges and institutes; (2) investing in college and institute infrastructure; (3) barriers to postsecondary education: student debt/financial aid; and (4) positioning Canada's colleges and institutes on the national research agenda. In addition to the above-mentioned transfer payments, ACCC recommends that the federal government raise the Canada Study Loans Program in-study exemption from scholarships, fellowships, and bursaries; convert one-half of the loan contracted under the Canada Student Loan Program to a grant upon graduation; and undertake a major pan-Canadian analysis of the causes of loan default and high student debt.
