If it's just tuition, it's not the students who are living off of
government largesse. It's those who work at universities, such as
professors and CUPE catering staff.

Now, in many cases those professors are not easily replaced with
someone willing to work for half their salary. On the other hand,
all of those union catering staff are. So why not save the taxpayers
some money and replace all those expensive union staff, who living
off government largesse, with labour so cheap that the catering
services actually turn a profit rather than a loss?
