The Ontario Human Rights Commission
“It is a common misperception that the Code prohibits the collection and analysis of data identifying people based on race and other Code grounds. Many individuals, organizations and institutions mistakenly believe that collecting this data is automatically antithetical to human rights…The OHRC’s position [is] that data collection and analysis should be undertaken where an organization or institution has or ought to have reason to believe that discrimination, systemic barriers or the perpetuation of historical disadvantage may potentially exist”. (OHRC 2009, pp.42-43)

“Roots of Youth Violence”
• McMurtry & Curling (2008) note the importance of (and resistance to) collection of data according to race. They state: “It is hard to think of another domain where it would be controversial to seek evidence of a problem and, where a problem is found, go on to seek evidence of how best to address it and whether the efforts made to do so are bearing fruit” (p. 240).

Questions to think about……..
1. Overall what are your reactions to drawing on demographic data to advance equity work? (challenges and opportunities)
2. What are some new questions which come from looking at the data?
3. How might this data have implications for educational researchers and policy makers?
4. Is there comparable demographic data available from your school boards?
