The Fédération des cégeps is warning that cégeps’ budget shortfall is expected to worsen if the Government of Quebec does not increase their funding in the next budget. Fédération president Marie Montpetit told Radio-Canada that student enrolment growth and wage increases will result in a 6% increase to costs. Université du Québec à Rimouski professor Martin Maltais emphasized the seriousness of the situation by stating that insufficient investments in young people today will have long-term effects on tax income in the future.
