Canadians take pride in one of the best education systems in the world. Every child's primary and secondary schooling is free, and their post-secondary education is subsidised: the government in most provinces pays more than two-thirds of tuition costs. Consequently, Canada's workforce is among the world's most educated and highly skilled. |
