Is university still worth it in 2026? Let's be real: most degrees are overpriced pieces of paper. You walk out with a mountain of debt and a job that might not even require your degree. Meanwhile, trades are booming. In Toronto, skilled labor is in high demand – think of the cash those electricians and plumbers are pulling in. Why not skip the four years of lectures and internship coffee runs? Instead, invest in a trade and start making bank sooner. Plus, while your peers are still playing the student loan game, you could be building a business or investing. What’s your take? Is university an outdated system or a necessary step in today’s world?
