This page was initially setup as part of a grad course on higher education policies in Canada (ADHE 536 at UBC). The launch and addition of contents coincides with a conference scheduled for June 1 to 3 (CSSHE) at UBC. The class will setup data structures for all the provinces, the federal government, and territories over the period of a week. Most of us aren't familiar with wikipedia editing and we're looking forward to your help as we enter the information we've researched. Adhe536ontario2008 ( talk) 20:23, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
To clarify, the intent is not to post original research nor host a class project. Instead, our "project" is to make an appropriate contribution to wikipedia by
In short, we're here to help, play by the rules, and make a positive contribution to the information available on wikipedia (e.g., by province). At the same time, everyone is new to wikipedia and we'll make some mistakes along the way. We appreciate you're feedback. Adhe536ontario2008 ( talk) 16:00, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

The following sentence needs to be clarified. Does the bicameral model refer to the Canadian government or the goverance of universities?
In 1906, controversy over the role of the Ontario government and the leadership of the University of Toronto led to the Flavelle Commission that articulated a separation of powers that led to the widespread adoption of the bicameral governance model in Canada.

Hey, nice article. I think the 1st image (map of Ontario within Canada) and the 3nd image (photo of a legislative building) are too prominent in the article, given that it is supposed to be about higher education. The lead photo is particularly important. Perhaps the aerial view of Queens College could be moved to the top right, or perhaps another photo depicting education could be found? The map of Ontario within Canada is still useful, but could be reduced in size and, i think, should not be the very first image. Anyhow, keep up the good work! doncram ( talk) 18:36, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
This article is now in decent shape, and I've promoted it to C class from start class. With only a little more work, it can be raised to B class. Here's a list of areas the article doesn't yet cover, or in which it is too brief (this was mentioned on a user's talk page, but deserves to be here too):
If there's anything else I've missed, please add it to the list. Mind matrix 14:23, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

The reference is present in the main text and the picture is a generic classroom that adds no value IMHO. elpincha ( talk) 05:36, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
