Catholic schools, said the document, cannot teach anything positive about masturbation because it is “not part of God’s natural order.”
Oral sex? Anal sex? They’re equally forbidden, even to married heterosexual couples, because they waste seed and make sex about something other than procreation.
Any sexual acts not aimed directly at creating life, said the document “miss the mark.”
Nor, said the proposal, can Catholic schools endorse artificial reproductive technologies, because children only come “as a gift from God.”
Even teaching about consent is problematic.
“Legal consent is important,” reads the document. “But we guard against a reductionist view of our human sexuality that consent is the most important factor in decision-making.”
Perpetual chastity, it said, is the only option for people with “same-sex attraction.” Anything else would defy “God’s natural order.”
just on the sex education issue alone, I can't consider Kenney.

What I hear inside this is you actually expect politicians to tell religious institutions how to believe. Call me crazy, but I think that’s crazy (ultimately that is the position that: we shouldn’t allow religious beliefs and freedoms).
For the record Jason Kenney’s position is not that he supports what they’re teaching, but that he supports their right to teach it.
