The Ontario government is in talks to move post-secondary courses online in an effort to save money. The information comes from a government discussion paper that has been leaked to the Canadian Press. The two other money-saving considerations in the paper, called “3×3,” are potentially cutting undergraduate degrees at certain participating schools to three years and adding undergraduate classes to the spring and summer semester, resulting in a year-round program. While the paper is not considered as a policy shift, it shows the government is considering some recommendations from the Drummond Report — the result of a year-long analysis into ways that Ontario can save money by the economist Don Drummond.
