This enactment expands the definition of ``qualifying student'' in the
Canada Student Financial Assistance Act to include a Convention
refugee. Under this enactment, a Convention refugee is a person who
has been determined to be a Convention refugee by the Immigration and
Refugee Board under the Immigration Act. This enactment would
permit such refugees to obtain financial assistance under the Canada
Student Financial Assistance Act and thereby acquire post-secondary
education and training.
