Description
Thomas R. Berger. (2006, March). Conciliator's Final Report: "The Nunavut Project" In a controversial report, Thomas Berger recommended that the key to improve representation of Inuit in the territorial government workforce is to expand a program of bilingual English-Inuktitut education from kindergarten to grade 12. His emphasis on the importance of primary and secondary education to prepare Inuit for workforce participation at all levels is a necessary and sensible response to federal territorial bickering about responsibility for improving work-force participation of the Inuit. However, the gains he projects from expanding bilingual education--even if he were not underestimating challenges of implementation--cannot be a centre-piece for reform without taking into account the equally serious challenges of improving overall educational quality and directly tackling issues of socio-economic disadvantage.
