Is it sufficient reason to suppress publicly-available data? Should StatsCan stop asking for socio-economic information? Should the existing data be erased? Should those who have seen it be sworn to silence?
Why?
To save some incompetent school administrators from embarassment?
Good point. Maybe they should also identify the ethnicity of the teachers and adminstrators as well. Most badly run schools are run by white people I'll have you know. It would be nice to have the statistical data on that.
