Ricardo Tranjan: “Ontario’s Core Education Funding Has Dropped by $1,500 Per Student Since 2018”

(Via the CCPA) – Government spending on public services is on the decline in Ontario. And so is transparency. I’m not referring to the murky Greenbelt land deals that turned housing policy into a police matter. I’m talking about the now-common practice of stashing money away in “contingency funds,” which allows the government to manipulate spending, revenues, and deficit figures, turning some financial statements into accounting fiction.

This is happening to education funding, too.
