Yes, absolutely. It's something we discuss with our provincial government on a regular basis. Unfortunately, we don't necessarily have the department's ear.
It is true that funds are given to francophone school boards to help them address certain specific challenges faced by francophones.
The fact remains that the average size of our school boards is 55,000 square kilometres, while that of the anglophone school boards is 5,000 square kilometres. I talk about this all the time. Imagine 200,000 students in a very small geographic area and compare that to 2,000 students spread out over a very large territory which is twice the size of Belgium and has 200 municipalities. That's the reality of one of our four school boards.
Even though our per‑student funding is a little higher, it's impossible for us to meet our needs. This funding model for our students is completely inequitable. Despite that, we still manage to achieve the best educational outcomes. Nevertheless, major concerns remain about our ability to maintain services in this context.
