"Alberta govt. to defund Bible-based schools, refuses to explain how they violate ‘diversity’"
lifesitenews.com
"The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF.ca) today released recent correspondence (1, 2, 3) between Alberta Education and independent faith-based schools.
In September of 2018, Deputy Minister Curtis Clark threatened religious schools with defunding and loss of accreditation if they do not remove religious content from their 'Safe and Caring' school policies.
During the week of October 1-5, several schools whose Safe and Caring policies had been deemed non-compliant by the Alberta Education 'Safe and Caring Team' requested clarification (1, 2, 3) as to how the religious views expressed in their policies could be found to violate 'diversity' or be 'unwelcoming, uncaring and/or disrespectful'. The October correspondence shows the Alberta government refusing to provide any explanation as to how, for example, 'diversity' is threatened by a school's policy that reflects the school's belief in the Bible as truth. The October correspondence shows Alberta Education justifying its ban on faith references in school policies solely on the basis of ... the opinion of the Minister.
Various schools responded to this 'rainbow reprimand' by asking simple and direct questions about how or why the religious content of their school policies was contrary to 'diversity' or contrary to providing a safe, welcoming, caring and respectful learning environment. Alberta Education responded with a form response (1, 2) that cited only 'the opinion of the Minister' to support Alberta Education's conclusion that these schools' religious beliefs, expressed in their own school policies, were unacceptable."
