NWC: A Timeline in Twitter

We are sad to announce the painful decision to lay off two hundred employees across Canada. We find ourselves in a highly competitive market which is forcing us to restructure the company. We are looking to the future and are hopeful for new markets.

We are so excited to bring back our Canadian employees who were laid off last December. New markets in #China have us working harder than ever. We are looking forward to having the family back together again. Many thanks to the team for their dedication!

Each response has its criticisms, but the benefits of free tuition are clear upon investigation of the education industry. According to a Ted Talk by Sajay Samuel , the two biggest sources of loans in the United States - Sallie Mae and Navient - reported a combined profit of 1.2 billion dollars in 2015. Samuel argues that post secondary education and student loans are being sold to students through false advertising.
