Ontarian's brain block

It is an odd phenomenon I've noticed (and been fighting) in Ontario's newspapers and among the public. Whenever people and newspapers complain about the budget problems of school boards and propose some petty remedy they forget the real solution: Amalgamating the Catholic schools into the public system and get ride of all the obscene duplication! There are half filled schools next to each other or a overflowing school next to a half full school and they are segregated due to the religion of some of the students. It's a ridiculous waste of money, government sponsored discrimination and I don't understand why the public doesn't see this!?!
