Pity that there are so few of them [educated voters].
Huh?
Pardon me, I'm just an uneducated multi-dropout, but.....
We’re number one! According to the
2014 Education at a Glance report by the OECD, Canada has the highest percentage, among member countries, of adults aged 25-64 who have obtained a tertiary education – 53%. We’ve occupied that spot for some years now. The OECD average is 32%.

Ok, that's a bit dated and it's a bit overscaled, seeing as it's the entire nation, but I think that rate must be similar for Ontario.
I don't think it's fact that only the uneducated support/-ed this government. That's a bit of a fantasy I think some people might tell themselves to maybe feel better about their own choices. I don't know, I'm not a psychologist...I dropped out of studying that too.
On the other hand, anecdotally, my semi-"uneducated" group of friends is nowhere near being in support of this partially regressive (let's be honest, their drugs policies have been pretty impressive overall) government.
Uneducated people don't necessarily lack critical thinking, abstract thinking, a sense of morality, or are illiterate, can't count, and are beholden to their most basic instincts.
A formal education isn't a prerequisite for a rational mind.
Just saying.
PS: You guys are always on about this around these parts. It'd be interesting to know what the level of educational attainment is amongst the denizens of these forums. I'm starting to think it must be a good 85%.
I think I'd wager on that. Who am I kidding, I love betting......a hundo says I'm right. Anyone?
In any case, I find it interesting how some people like making very clear the distinction between the educated and uneducated as if to wash themselves of the sins of the masses.
Anyway, carry on....I don't even have a diploma so my analysis is probably lacking a great many things.
