Now is that trend also prelevent in the US? Becasue Frum's arguement at the time was that the institutes that cost the most were by and large the most supportive of "conservative" policies. He also pointed out the countries that had the greatest support for Bush had the least amount of public funding for schooling... wereas the reverse was also true... thoughts?

I think that's pretty true in any country. Those with the least education vote for conservative groups just as those who are well educated and from affluent homes. The former Rosedale riding, for example, has elected more PC candidates than Liberal, and even with the new riding of Toronto-Centre, it's unlikely that it'll go NDP.


Vocab note:

Riding: The jurisdiction that a politician runs to represent
MP: Member of Parliament
MPP: Member of Provincial Parliament (used in Ontario only)
PC: Progressive Conservative Party of Canada. Now called the Conservative Party of Canada after merging with the Canadian Alliance.
