Public Education

public education: I say fiasco not because of the result, which was clear enough half an hour after the polls closed. , according to Times Colonist. No, the thing was a fiasco because in a province that prides itself on having a solid system of public education, a majority government was just elected by fewer than 25 per cent of people eligible to vote. Before anybody lays the blame for this recent provincial-election fiasco at the feet of public education, I thought I d get in first and say, you may have a point. Nor was it a fiasco because all the pundits, pollsters and talking heads on TV were so wrong in predicting the result. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
