## Resource

A new Montreal Public Health report reveals Quebec’s education system may be deepening health and opportunity gaps among youth, with private school students graduating at nearly 93% versus just 80% in public schools. Critics, including unions and Québec Solidaire, challenge Coalition Avenir Québec’s leader Christine Fréchette’s claim that Quebec doesn’t have a three-tiered system, arguing that structural disparities disproportionately harm students from disadvantaged backgrounds—leading to higher dropout rates, lower self-esteem, and more mental health issues. While private school advocates defend their model as inclusive and non-profit, calls grow for a unified public system and broader societal action to ensure equitable access to quality education for all.
