Do we think that more than 46% of us read above a 6th-grade level? Yes, at 87% ‘scoring PIAAC level 2 or higher’, so that’s one metric. Most tertiary education? We’re doing a little better there, too (65% vs 51%). Electing pedos? Still eking ahead; and I’m calling that an intelligence test.
But you can surely find areas where Canadians don’t score highly, and that’s going to be okay. We don’t need to be the winner.
