=====================================================
OECTA is rolling out a new propaganda campaign. Videos, talking points, social media ads etc
A long video last night introducing it is here:
https://www.facebook.com/OECTA/videos/1252232398159200/
It is sad to watch. Especially her answers on how classrooms are already Catholic enough, support for LGBTQ etc. She refused to answer 2 prolife questions (how can she, given her FAFIA abortion endorsement?)

“Lessons for Life”. This is IDENTICAL to what Public schools would say! CARDUS survey shows that catholic grads participate in elections and volunteer at almost same rate as public school grads. NO difference!

PDF of guidebook: Social justice, yada yada, fairness, yada yada, common ground, yada,

This part is laughable given OECTA signing the FAFIA abortion-support document, marching in Gay parades (against Bishops’), lgbtq push, genderbread persons, etc etc etc
Looks like OECTA is heading into another battle like the Kielburger (who is pro Planned Parenthood btw) video that had to be pulled by the “catholic” trustees. Both Public and Catholic schools have their We Day clubs etc from Free the Children.. social justice, values, yada yada yada. Same thing with Roots of Empathy which runs in both Public and Catholic schools:

OECTA “values” are not distinctively Catholic values. They are IDENTICAL to the values in the Public system (authenticity, non-judgemental, inclusive, charity, global warming, etc etc)
DON’T let this OECTA propaganda go unchallenged!! The FACTS are against them!
Please share on social media and counter act their campaign in mid April. Studies like the CARDUS study are show below. OECTA’s horrible anti-Catholic behaviour cannot be tolerated!
==============
While OECTA pushes nebulous terms like “Catholic values”, “self-authenticity” etc, the Catholic Church actually teaches that people who act out as transgenders are not leading a life according to the Faith”! OECTA refuses to tell students this, whether it be Eli Marentette or Gigi Gorgeous from the Peel Catholic Board
“In the Vatican’s full response – which the bishop provided in his statement – the congregation explained that transsexual behavior “reveals in a public way an attitude opposite to the moral imperative of solving the problem of sexual identity according to the truth of one’s own sexuality.”
“Therefore it is evident that this person does not possess the requirement of leading a life according to the faith and in the position of godfather and is therefore unable to be admitted to the position of godfather or godmother,” they said, referring to canon 874 §3 in the Code of Canon Law

OECTA will have you believe that catholic school make better citizens and are more involved in “social justice” than Public schools. This is plain wrong. The major Cardus survey disproved this!!!
The bad news is that Public “Catholic” High Schools are WORSE than
Public schools in many areas:
– more likely to support Same Sex Marriage
– more likely to want even bigger government
– more likely to feel helpless in dealing with problems in life
– more likely to believe that Religion is a Private Matter that should be Kept
Out of Public Debates about Social and Political Issues
– less likely to feel an obligation to vote
– less likely to believe God or the Bible Help Me Decide what is Right
and Wrong
– less likely to have boycotted a company for its political or social views and less likely to have participated in a demonstration or protest
Areas where Public and Public Catholic are virtually identical:
– volunteer hours
– rate of cohabitation before marriage
2016 results:
•no difference with public schools of rate of divorce
•Catholic grads more likely to be gay/bi/trans
•same as public school in believing so-called gay marriage is ok
•do not volunteer any more than public school grads
•more likely to believe that science conflicts with religion
•-Less likely than public school grads to believe the bible is an infallible guide for behaviour

The Cardus surveys are much more rigorous than the Catholic ICE study (no comparison to non-Catholicschool grads, 75% women, etc etc)
