“You’re picking basket-weaving courses and there’s not too many baskets being sold out there. Go into healthcare, go into trades,” shared Ford. “Those are where the jobs are.”

If Ford was really serious about promoting healthcare and the trades, he would make OSAP loan/grant ratios dependent on the course taken. Make OSAP 90% grant 10% loan for the trades and health care, and 90% loan 10% grant for basket weaving courses.

Does Ford really have the background to comment on this?

Grade 12 grad who somehow managed to flunk out of a grade 13 equivalency program at Humber, never held a real job his entire life.

He has NO IDEA what goes on at universities, neither do the chronic losers who vote for him.

He is a certified idiot. I can't think of anyone more suitable to spew this trash.
