Book Description
Separate schools were introduced into Ontario between 1841 and 1867 when Upper Canada was joined with Lower Canada to form the United Province of Canada. The school acts of 1841 and 1843 outlined the basic arrangements by which either a Roman Catholic or a Protestant minority might establish a dissenting separate school board. Since the School Act of 1863 (usually referred to as the Scott Act), the separate school question has focused on two major issues: (1) the appropriate division of tax monies between the public and separate school systems; and (2) the involvement of separate schools in secondary education. The Tiny Township legal case of 1926-1928 resolved that Roman Catholic separate schools had no automatic constitutional right to offer the full range of secondary education. Subsequent Roman Catholic campaigns for full funding of secondary education have taken a political rather than legal route. (Author/BZ)

Book Description
There are two myths about Ontario Catholic separate schools: * One is that Ontario Catholic separate schools are funded by the property taxes of the supporters of separate schools.* The second is that prior to Confederation Catholic separate schools were funded on the same basis as public schools. Neither myth is true.Only about 6% to 10% of the operating revenues of Ontario Catholic separate schools overall come from the property taxes of separate Catholic school supporters. Most of the funding comes from general Ontario revenues. Prior to Confederation in 1867, Catholic separate schools received about 61% to 71% of the funding per student of public schools. Most of their funding came from their property taxes and the contributions of their supporters. The provincial funding they did receive was only about 20% of their total revenues, and was on the same per capita basis as the funding of public schools. Today, by contrast, Catholic separate schools receive about $1,500 to $3,000 per student more in provincial operating grants than public schools. They have, overall, more operating revenue per student than public schools.Even though they are supported by public funds, they are legally allowed to discriminate against non-Catholic teachers and teaching assistants. No other religions or philosophies have any funding for their schools in Ontario, only Catholic separate schools.This book summarizes the key and unexpected steps that transformed these schools from their very different position in 1867 to their privileged position and public funding today. It also briefly summarizes what could be done to change this surprising situation in a multicultural country with a Charter of Rights.
