I am all for giving out some money and sharing the wealth with the rest of Canada, but the second anyone thumbs their nose asking for more is precisely when it should be kicked in.
It's like those losers who ask for a smoke and when you give them one they ask for three more.

It seems like an empty gesture to me. They are basically paying for one semester's tuition for 325 people across the country.
$12 Million over 20 Years...if you assume that global oil prices will remain at the same level (likely they will go up) over the next 20 years with increasing middle east instability and the astronomical growing needs for oil in Russia and China...
That's $12,000,000 out of $180,000,000,000
A percentage so small I can't even calculate it
As an Albertan, I don't want the rest of Canada to get our money, but as a student, the matter of tuition and the fact that it is so high and that governements (any level) aren't helping to contribute more really irks me.
