Fertility rates equal school closures

RE: We should all be angry at school closures (July 10)

Heather Kuyk gets an “F” for her rant for failing to mention anywhere the key issue of demographics. Ontario’s fertility rate has sunk to 1.5, far below replacement level of 2.1. That’s why 121 Ontario schools are set to close over the next three years, not because of evil officials and politicians, as Kuyk would have it. Jeff White, Ancaster
