Descripción: The following article deals with university education in Canada and its redistri- butive effects. From an economic point of view, there are two fundamental questions: first, which students are the principal beneficiaries of a university education? Secondly, who in Canadian society primarily bears the cost of edu- cating university students? As the following article shows, the answers to these questions are not encouraging, if we view universities as institutions that strive for greater economic equality in Canada. Children of high income families tend to be the ones that capture the bulk of the financial rewards of a university degree, while low income families often pay a disproportionately large share of educational expenditures.
