Why is the government ignoring literacy disparities and the gender divide in conversations about de-streaming in Ontario?

Let me summarize this for everyone just to bring it home:

  1. The largest identifiable ‘group’ of students in Applied high school courses in Ontario are white males.
  2. There is a significant achievement gap in literacy skills between female and male students in Ontario.
  3. There is a significant achievement gap in literacy skills between Academic and Applied students in Ontario.
