This opinion piece fails to explain how inclusion is causing the problem. Correlation does not equal causation, but the link between inclusion and the test score is not elaborated on beyond a brief mention.
Why not both?

How ironic. Alberta, the one complaining about the Feds imposing on “their jurisdiction” and then they go and impose all over the municipalities. The hypocrisy is ridiculous. They really are just in it for what they want. Screw the Feds, screw the cities, just let us be dictators! Ick.
Labour productivity has grown by 0.2 percent annually, on average, between early 2015 and the end of 2023.
…average weekly earnings have increased only 1.6 percent between January 2015 and January 2024, or less than 0.2 percent per year.
This sounds like productivity is commensurate with pay. Maybe instead of advocating for interest rates to drop (which has issues of its own), we should be advocating for proper pay raises?
Edit to add a note: This comment is intending to call them out about poor wages. If you want more productivity, then pay us for it! I’m sick of doing the work of 3 people with measly, if any, wage raises!
We used to have them. They were called Crown Corporations and were in the hands of the provinces that they resided in. However, almost all of them have been sold to private companies instead of being maintained as publicly/government owned services. Saskatchewan still has a few left, but there is a push within the Sask Party to sell them out from under the province.
Sask is, in fact, quite far behind.
