Waterloo Catholic school board votes to back OECTA’s WorldPride march, Halton board won’t oppose

Halton Catholic trustee Anthony Danko

TORONTO, June 4, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Waterloo Catholic District School Board passed a motion of support last week for the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association’s decision to participate in Toronto’s World Pride Parade on June 29. OECTA’s participation in the parade has been condemned by Ontario’s bishops, including Toronto Cardinal Thomas Collins.

The Waterloo board’s decision came a week after the Halton Catholic District School Board refused to pass a motion asking OECTA to withdraw.

The motion by Halton trustee Anthony Danko died without a seconder at the board’s May 20 meeting.

Danko’s motion had also requested the board seek options for “remedial and punitive actions” that could be taken against the union if it “continues to offer scandal to the Catholic community by appearing in the World Pride Parade.”  (more...)
