Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
They can't increase local tuition since it's set by the government.
The government also sets the out-of-province and international tuition.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that the government would see this need for more income through local students/the set of international students they have coming in, so they'd have to raise it for the schools themselves.
It's more just a money in/money out comment. Not sure I said it was the universities increasing the tuition themselves.
