A separate Catholic and Protestant school system in Canada

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The separate Catholic and Protestant school system in Canada was established prior to Confederation, with the passage of the Act Respecting Roman Catholic Schools in 1863 and the British North America Act of 1867 which gave provinces the power to establish separate schools. While it may be debated whether this system violates the principle of mass education, it was not established after Confederation or with direct interference with the Industrial Revolution.
