Résumé

Canada's educators, like its politicians (and like politicians and educators in other places), are confronted with what are perhaps the two essential data of this century - a society which is convergent but in which there are clearly distinguishable and rather permanent variations. The convergence, or tendency for Canadians to become more like each other, that is accompanying rural-to-urban migration, industrialization, improved roads and television, is largely in the direction of the urban, middle-class, large-scale-organization way of life; the persisting variations are chiefly socioeconomic and regional, although there are important religious and ethnic differences as well.
