Meet The Student Who Told Doug Ford What Schools Are Missing

Today, Stephen LeDrew speaks with Mehtab Sangha, a first-year student at the Rotman School of Commerce, who recently raised concerns about financial literacy directly with Premier Doug Ford and former Education Minister Stephen Lecce. Mehtab explains why Ontario students graduate high school without basic money skills and why financial literacy should be a full-year course, not an afterthought.They discuss what Mehtab told the Premier, how the government responded, and why young Canadians are entering adulthood unprepared for budgeting, saving, debt, and the realities of today’s economy. It’s a sharp look at what schools miss, what politicians need to hear, and why financial education matters more than ever for a generation struggling with housing, inflation, and opportunity.A thoughtful and impressive conversation with one of the next generation’s sharpest voices.
