An Ontario career college has suspended its academic operations as a result of a province-wide pause on student financial assistance to all private post-secondary institutions.

Trillium College, with campuses in St. Catharines, Kingston, Oshawa, Sudbury and Cobourg, paused classroom and online instruction as of Friday, it said in a notice to students obtained and confirmed by The Canadian Press. It comes after Colleges and Universities Minister Nolan Quinn announced earlier this month that Ontario Student Assistance Program payments to career colleges and other private post-secondary institutions are paused while an audit is underway. Trillum wrote that it is offering interest-free payment arrangements, but many students have said they cannot make those payments without OSAP funding. “Many students have also asked for more time to assess their financial circumstances, explore alternative payment options and determine how they can realistically continue their education,” the college wrote.

Voters in the City of Vancouver have strongly supported all three capital borrowing plebiscite questions in the 2026 civic election, with preliminary results showing roughly four in five votes cast on each question were in favour. The results have provided the municipal government with the legal green light to borrow $790 million to help fund a portion of its $3.5-billion capital plan between 2027 and 2030, which covers new and improved community and recreational facilities, transportation infrastructure, and utilities.
