Obviously, for many of the children of "illegal" immigrants, simply paying fees is probably not an option. I'm proud that our Canadian laws have supported the rights of children, including a "don't ask don't tell" policy about immigration status in the education system. See for example:

No one wants to go to Canada if they can get away with it in the States.
