Dialogue: 0,0:00:02.98,0:00:05.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,On the relevance of education...
Dialogue: 0,0:00:05.56,0:00:08.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well, I guess the first thing I would say is…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:08.83,0:00:10.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Welcome to Canada!
Dialogue: 0,0:00:13.39,0:00:15.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but, welcome to Canada...
Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.35,0:00:18.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’d say education is relevant.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.78,0:00:22.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’d be very surprised if anyone said that is not relevant.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.33,0:00:28.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I think it’s relevant not simply for the facts that you learn…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:28.45,0:00:32.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Learning facts is good, but you know, facts change over time,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:32.81,0:00:36.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what’s true changes over time, what you need to know changes over time…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.96,0:00:42.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it’s not simply the facts that you learn that make education relevant.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.40,0:00:48.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think that education gives you new ways of seeing the world,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.59,0:00:52.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,new recognitions of things that are out there,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.98,0:00:58.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,new opportunities of things that you can do
Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.30,0:01:03.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and new understanding and possibilities for your life that you can have,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.40,0:01:06.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that you might not have had otherwise, without an education.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.90,0:01:11.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,An education is what opens the world to you.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:11.18,0:01:15.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A lot of people would say that an education is important
Dialogue: 0,0:01:15.05,0:01:17.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in order to have material success,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.30,0:01:20.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to get a job and all of that, and that’s true,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.74,0:01:26.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it’s also important to know that education is by itself
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.41,0:01:30.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not going to be sufficient to do this. You can’t just say:
Dialogue: 0,0:01:30.91,0:01:33.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,“Oh, we will educate the population
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.88,0:01:38.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then they automatically be prosperous and peaceful and all of that"
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.64,0:01:40.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, it takes more than that.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.57,0:01:43.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think an education is necessary for that to occur,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.71,0:01:50.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but you also have to, over time, build the society as a whole.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.58,0:01:57.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Education helps to do that, but it takes a wider good will in all of society…
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.89,0:02:02.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I’m not sure how to express that exactly, but...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:05.49,0:02:07.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the idea...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.31,0:02:11.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the belief in a society that everybody in this society is important
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.87,0:02:14.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and everybody in society contributes…
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.96,0:02:17.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you have a society like that,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.65,0:02:22.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where everybody believes in everybody else in the society,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:22.26,0:02:25.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then education becomes a very powerful tool
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.06,0:02:30.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to help you as a community develop into something more,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.32,0:02:32.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and to have an interesting life…
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.100,0:02:34.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Thank you.
