Canadian Story

I am not sure why this page has to be an Ontario story? When it's very much a story about education in Canada and the role consolidation had on learn in Canada. With the building locations and funding as a side note. Snowy Badger (talk) 13:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

possibly useful sources for this article

Article needs lots or work and sourcing, but topic appears to be notable so I have deprodded it. Some material I found:

https://www.guelphhistoricalsociety.ca/archives/historic-guelph/volume-46/macdonald-consolidated-school-a-noble-experiment Guelph Historical Society, has a bibliography and list of refs that will likely prove useful.
https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/pdf/10.1086/453587 presumably written by one of the early principals
