The reason that other provinces don't do it is because it's already way more expensive to study outside Quebec than within Quebec for Quebec students. Unlike the McGill situation, there are very few Quebec students "leeching" off ROC money at ROC universities because there is nothing to leech.
Let's say it costs 3500 bucks a year to study in Quebec and 15000 a year to study at the same program at the University of Ottawa. Ontario is gonna ding Quebec students a few thousand bucks more just because they are from Quebec?
Fine then. Quebec students will just stay in Quebec even more and the University of Ottawa will get fewer students. (The number of Quebec students at the University of Ottawa has already plummeted due to the discrepancy in tuition fees as it is.)
