Governments are underfunding education, and in Canada there's pressure to limit international students who pay big bucks to study here, so there's a bit of talk of austerity at many public universities in Canada.

When you combine it with the profit incentive of private universities and their administration acting like CEOs, and all the contracting out that was done by both public and private that are now screwing them over, paints an awful picture for education in North America.
