Unfortunately with over 50 per cent failure rate in the last EQAO grade 6 basic math testing in Ontario, this problem will not be resolved.  Apparently there are over 3000 high tech jobs available in the greater GTA which are requiring companies to bring in workers on a foreign visa as we do not have the qualified labour pool to fill these vacancies. It starts with basic math in education to fill these positions and Ontario is failing!!!   We are in a digital revolution and basic computer science skills are not required to graduate high school.
