It may be time to consider moving back to Ontario at this rate. I've got two young kids and this just reinforces feelings I already have about Alberta's educatin' system.

I want to know when they're going to explain the basis of Christian holidays so I can pull my kid out of school because I'm an atheist. I also want the public schools to teach on Good Friday.

When do my concerns get addressed Mr. Stelmach?

My mistake, it does alllow me to opt my kid out of religious instruction. Great...

Still, as one of the commenters on the article says, accoring to the test, why would evolution even be included in this, it is not religious or relating to sexuality.
