Yes, it's around 10 000$ a year (from which the government pays 80%  
because I'm a Quebec citizen...)
and btw, almost all unis are like that, but poly is smaller so we can  
really 'see it in action', but anywhere you go, you'll always be seen as a  
money source, especially in this country controled by the consumption (in  
every movie on tv, you have 10 minutes of the movie, then 5 minutes of  
ads, it's really annoying to watch movies like this (+ they cut a lot of  
stuff from the movies to make it fit in 2 hours and still keep their 50%  
time of ads) unless you pay for a 'ad-free channel'...)
if you are interested in knowing more, ask me over msn if you find me, I  
can tell you the whole story! :)
