<p>@shawbridge, I think you meant @Canuckguy. Me, I’m a product of the Canadian public school system (U of Toronto, U.W.O., Osgoode Hall), and damned proud of it, eh?</p>
<p>Still, I took expatSon on visits to over a dozen U.S. schools (mostly LACs), and a couple of Canadian schools.</p>
<p>This past March, during lunch in a Dalhousie eatery, my son looked up at me between mouthfuls and remarked, “The cafeteria workers are discussing theology.”</p>
<p>He starts there this fall, and I couldn’t be more pleased. He’ll receive a fine education for (by modern U.S. standards) a bargain price, and be afforded all the benefits of a full research university. And he even gets credit for his AP studies.</p>
