Gay-straight bill could allow covert sex ed: Alberta United Conservatives
EDMONTON — Alberta’s United Conservatives say they’re concerned the government is using a bill on gay-straight alliances to prepare for kids to be taught sex education without parents being told.
“Now is the time for the government to reassure Albertans that they have no intention of coming after their rights as parents,” United Conservative critic Mike Ellis told the legislature Thursday.
“Now is the time for the government to prove that it doesn’t have anything up its sleeve.”
The bill makes it illegal for school officials to tell parents when a child joins an alliance.
