Given the way the schools in Ontario are now run, I don’t see the benefit of using property taxes to collect the funds. Anything obvious that can be shifted off of property tax reduces the issues with property tax, even if no other changes are made.
This would be the simplest ... redirecting that part of the property taxes would add somewhere around 20% to municipal budgets.
