TORONTO, Ontario, January 31, 2012 (lifesitenews.com) – After Ontario’s Catholic trustees took a strong stand against homosexual activism in a new anti-bullying plan last week, Ontario’s government has slammed the plan for failing to allow for single-issue clubs for homosexual students.
"We’ve been absolutely crystal clear that we expect students to participate in groups and have the issues important to them talked about," Education Minister Laurel Broten told the Catholic Register’s Deborah Gyapong on Monday.
In a Jan. 25th document titled Respecting Differences, the Ontario Catholic School Trustees Association (OCSTA) established a framework for student-led clubs to combat bullying related to racism, gender, disability, and sexual orientation.

TORONTO, Ontario, (LifeSiteNews.com) – Ontario’s Catholic leaders are taking a strong stand against homosexual activism in the province’s Catholic schools.
In a long-awaited framework for anti-bullying clubs in the schools, they insist that the clubs remain faithful to Catholic teaching, be overseen by a staff advisor who knows and believes the Church’s teaching, and that the clubs cannot engage in activism against Catholic teaching.
The Catholic schools’ stand could set up a confrontation with Dalton McGuinty’s Liberal government.
Parents and pro-family activists have been concerned for months that the clubs would simply be gay-straight alliances under a Catholic name. But the framework document, sent to school boards by the Ontario Catholic School Trustees Association (OCSTA) this week, insists GSAs are "not acceptable in Catholic schools."
