Also

 

Of those who wrote it for the first time, a total of 85% of Ontario's Grade 10 students passed the literacy test administered by the Education Quality and Accountability Office, up from last year's 84%.

 

Grade 10 students in ONTARIO only; Ontario is a PROVINCE. This is ONLY 15/16 year olds.

 

 

Double post for the win.

 

EDIT because I didn't feel like triple posting:

19 United States 99.0

19 Canada 99.0

Wrong.

 

According to the cia.gov website:

 

Canada:

Literacy:

Field info displayed for all countries in alpha order.

definition: age 15 and over can read and write

total population: 99%

male: 99%

female: 99% (2003 est.)

 

USA:

Literacy:

Field info displayed for all countries in alpha order.

definition: age 15 and over can read and write

total population: 99%

male: 99%

female: 99% (2003 est.)

 

Although these are 2003 estimates, they're probably pretty much the same.

 

So don't you come here with your 85% Canada literacy rate.

 

Why would u ask the CIA when we are talking about Canada.

 

and ALOT of things happened during 2003-2009

Oh, and during those years, Switzerland's literacy rate dropped to about 20%; I can tell this by reading your posts.

A. Just because you're not Swiss does not mean that you are excluded from studies in the country that you live in.

B. I don't copy pasta. I do research, provide links, and then provide explanations to prove how dumb your post was.

C. Of course you do, which is why you said "Canada: 85 USA: 99 DISCUSS BAI". Yeah, that's some real effort you got there.

Since when this turn into a literacy contest?

 

And FYI, failing grade 10 literacy test in Canada doesn't make the person illiterate.
