Show Notes
Ontario's new government has garnered widespread attention with its move to replace the controversial 2015 sex-ed curriculum with the 1998 version while the province's ministry of education works on an update.
It also seems as though 'discovery math' will be removed and replaced with an older model that teaches the fundamentals of mathematics, and our guest says this is a good thing.
