Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

EIn Canada, federal legislation does not directly mandate specific practices for mainstreaming or inclusive schooling, nor does it provide funding for Special Education, which is primarily a provincial responsibility. Unlike the United States, where specific legislation like PL 94-142 (now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act - IDEA) mandates inclusion and specific practices, Canadian federal legislation does not have an equivalent. However, it does acknowledge the concept of inclusion, though without prescribing specific practices, leaving the implementation details to provincial jurisdictions.
