Title |
The Geographic Implications of School Board Reform in Quebec
|
Abstract |
The author examines the 1993 decision of the Supreme Court of Canada three years after it was handed down that allowed the Province of Quebec to restructure the system of education, from one based on religious affiliation to one based on language of instruction. The author set forth a number of geographic implications of such a reform, including the historic, demographic, linguistic, political, and territorial aspects of the Education Act of Quebec, known as Bill 107. The author argued that while the change to linguistic-based boards is applauded, there was no clear understanding of what the new map of school board territories will look like, yet the implications of this decision are far-reaching.
