Is a private school not a public good, it costs less to the taxpayer to educate kids there, however they are still teaching the same curriculum by law and receiving taxpayer dollars because of that? The difference is made up by parents willing to make up the difference?

Are the private schools not providing a educational function to the kids in this province?
