SCRIPT 1 – Fairness for Students
Hello, my name is [NAME], and I'm calling to express my concern about the impact of Ontario's OSAP funding restrictions on students attending established Christian and other private colleges and universities.
These students have done nothing wrong, yet many are facing serious financial uncertainty through no fault of their own.
I'm asking MPP [NAME] to support a fair and immediate solution that restores funding to eligible students at compliant institutions.
Thank you for passing along my concerns.
SCRIPT 2 – Protect Students and Taxpayers
Hello, my name is [NAME]. I'm calling about the OSAP funding situation affecting students at Christian and other private postsecondary institutions.
I understand the government needs to protect taxpayers and address abuses of the system. However, students attending legitimate, compliant institutions should not be penalized for problems they did not create.
Would MPP [NAME] support a solution that protects both taxpayers and eligible students? Thank you for your time.
SCRIPT 3 – Urgent Action Needed
Hello, my name is [NAME], and I'm calling because I'm concerned about students who are facing the loss of OSAP funding after already beginning their academic semester.
Many rely on this assistance for tuition, housing, groceries, and family expenses. Delays in resolving this situation could have serious consequences for their education.
I'm asking MPP [NAME] to raise this issue with the Minister of Colleges and Universities and advocate for a timely resolution.
Thank you for listening and for sharing my message.
