Canada Student Loans Go ZERO INTEREST!

Sometimes, change seems to take forever when suddenly, bang!

After several decades of debate, the interest charges on both Canada Student Loans and Canada Apprentice Loans were effectively ended yesterday (November 3, 2022). 

Canada had a Covid-pandemic pause on student loan interest charges that was set to last through March, 2023. The new zero-interest policy takes effect starting April, 2023, replacing the Covid pause.
