This review is a critique of Sue Winton's Unequal Benefits: Privatization and Public Education in Canada. Sounding an alarm about the encroachment of privatization in the Canadian school system, Winton provides a critical review of the many ways in which neoliberal marketization of education is becoming common place in Canadian schools. Many of the examples provided by Winton demonstrate how individual choices have detrimental effects on the ideals of public education. Unequal Benefits: Privatization and Public Education in Canada encourages parents, educators, and policymakers to engage in the fight to save public education from this growing privatization.
