All of those mills—I hate that term—were teaching the public college curriculum—every last one of them. I know people hate when they see the word “private” in front of “education”. They just assume things are bad. Every single one of them was delivering a public sector education. Some of them were doing it better than others. We don't know, because the provincial government declined to actually have any quality assessment processes for these things, which was a disaster. We could have solved lots of problems with that.
Were public colleges, via the use of public-private partnerships, monetizing the system? Absolutely, it was 100% what they were they doing.
