LaSalle College Faces $48M Debt Crisis | Ottawa News

LaSalle College is drowning in debt—nearly $48 million owed to Quebec after over-enrolling English-speaking students and misusing subsidies. Fines totaling $29 million stem from new 2022 French-language laws, while another $18 million must be repaid for overpaid grants. Despite claiming they had proper approvals, the college says penalties are “unfair and unprecedented,” threatening its survival. Classes are on hold until subsidies return, and officials demand a repayment plan—and approval for a new science program—as the school fights to stay afloat.
