Ontario needs ONE publicly funded school system

Details

The publicly funded Halton Catholic District School Board passed a resolution to ban fundraising for charities that run counter to Catholic values. Under this ban, its schools will no longer be able to raise money for groups that directly or indirectly support abortion, contraception, sterilization, euthanasia or embryonic stem cell research. This means their students will have to dissociate from charities such as the Red Cross, the Canadian Cancer Society, all hospitals including Sick Kids Hospital, the Terry Fox Foundation, all universities, all science centres and other organizations.

The Separate School Board System is financed with public money and by accepting these funds, they forfeit the right to impose their values in the public domain.

Join Ontario Humanist Society, Humanist Canada, Secular Ontario, Canadian Humanist Publications, Civil Rights in Public Education, One Public Education for All to show your support for one publicly funded school system for all Ontarians
