While you raise a few good points, it should be noted that under the previous conservative government of Harris/Eves their were billions of dollars in cuts to the public education system. Teacher strikes were the norm, larger classroom sizes and also the lack of teachers were also the case. Finally we have a government that's made the much needed investment in our public education system. However there's still much more that needs to be done to our public education system before any type of public funding could be passed to faith based schools.

Everyone must remember that it's a parents choice to send their kids to a private school, and by making that choice you pay the price of having your kids learn in the faith based environment.

John Tory's plan calls for a commission to be set-up and run by former premier Bill Davis, and a report due back in either 2010 or 2011 just in time for the next Provincial election. So if you support funds coming from public education and going to faith based schools then don't expect anything to happen until after the next provincial election. If elected Tory won't be able to keep his promise. So please review all of the facts before making a decision.
