Like most such comparisons, this article compares state funded Canadian universities with private US institutions (some of which are the most expensive in the world). Even when a study includes the less expensive State Universities in the US, the stats come out badly skewed because of the high costs of private universities which a very small percentage of people attend. The fact is that overall, university education in the US is very comparable to the cost in Canada, and in the case of some state universities it is even cheaper.Kirbycairohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528654183160305877noreply@blogger.com
