Quebec is keeping a 33 per cent tuition increase for non‑francophone students from outside the province.
In an April 2025 ruling, the Quebec Superior Court invalidated the hike as drafted but gave the province nine months to update its framework.
In an updated policy published late last month, the province explained the rationale behind the tuition increase, which mainly affected English universities Concordia and McGill.
A preferential tuition rate continues to be available to out-of-province students who choose to pursue their university studies in French, writes The Gazette's Andy Riga.
