Canada

Quebec is the only province where French is the only official language.

The only way you can say funding is similar is if you ignore everything else but provincial funding (and even then it's close but English universities still get more per student). McGill is the richest university in Quebec with over a billion dollars in its purse, in the meantime the UQ is struggling to find enough money for the students it has.

Donating to one's Alma Mater isn't part of French Canadian culture like it is for Anglo Canadian's, there's a whole lot of historical reasons for that, but the point is, it's McGill that receives 200m$ from an ex student, not the French universities.

The tuition policy affects ALL universities, not just the English ones.

Sure, students should go to university for free, but that's another debate and that's an issue where Quebec can't be singled out. There's also very little reason to give free education to people who will then leave the province that educated them and that will therefore not pay taxes to reimburse what they cost the education system. Because let me remind you, education is a provincial responsibility.
