Equality In Canada
I believe that Canada prides themselves on being a very equal country for the most part, equality is “the state of being equal “(Collins English Dictionary, 2015) no matter what race or gender you are. As much as Canada prizes itself of this equality I don’t believe it is present in Canada’s education system.

In a financial market people must beable to make their decision based off of equity and fairness and less of off what suits them best.
Overall Equality and equity are important foundations in both free markets and the school systems, it is the basis of everyone getting a fair chance and being able to achieve their full potential. Equality and equity prevent minorities from dominating other minorities giving everyone an equal shot at
