Following BC’s bad example (part 4):
Recovering real education to save kids

How can Canadians recover control over the education of their children, and stop the re-structuring of our society by militant Secularists?

First, we must understand that it urgently needs to be done.

There’s little sense of urgency about this among most hard-working parents; because most families are time-strapped, with both parents holding jobs outside the home. Such parents trust the schools to take proper care of their children; but that job was given by God to parents, not to the state.

A growing number parents across Canada are trying to rescue their children, and they are to be commended; private-school and home-school students who are being taught how to think instead of what to think will be a very important resource for the rebuilding of a damaged culture. But such parents are still a minority. And increasingly, the parochial and independent schools—even home-schoolers—are also being compelled to conform to the Secularist curriculum, in order to qualify for even partial funding.

If we are to restore Canada’s culture, we must recover rational and compassionate control of our schools—working at both the provincial and federal levels: provincial because, under Canada’s Constitution, education is a matter of provincial jurisdiction; federal because the lion’s share of education funding now comes from federal coffers through transfer payments.

How can we achieve that? We have to begin by electing representatives who care about the culture of Canada more than they care about re-election and their pensions. But parents must also realize that their children represent 100% of Canada’s future; we must not surrender them to the 2% homosexual minority or the 16% irreligious minority.

The future of Canada—her children—is up to Canada’s parents. Money isn’t the issue. Morality is.
