These policies, including school choice, fundraising, fees, and international education, encourages parents and others in the private sector to take on responsibilities for education formerly provided by governments with devastating consequences for the democratic goals of public education.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eUnequal Benefits\u003c\/i\u003e introduces traditional and critical approaches to policy research and explains how to conduct a critical policy analysis.

In these idealized education spaces, policy decisions prioritize collective needs over private interests, which are made in public by democratically elected officials, and, more importantly, every child is able to access high quality education programs and enjoy their benefits at no cost. Written for parents, educators, policymakers, and other interested citizens, \u003ci\u003eUnequal Benefits\u003c\/i\u003e sheds light on how to participate in efforts to resist educational privatization and achieve the public school ideal across Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e1.
