Alleged human rights violations

[edit]

In October, 2009 it was reported that a man formerly employed by the district had filed a human rights complaint against the district.[3] The man, Jan Buterman, claimed that in 2008 he had been removed from the district's substitute teaching list after he declared his intention to transition from a female to male. In a letter to Buterman dated October 14, 2008 the division's deputy superintendent, Steve Bayus stated "Since you made a personal choice to change your gender, which is contrary to Catholic teachings, we have had to remove you from the substitute teacher list."[4] As of October 15, 2009, the Alberta Human Rights Commission had accepted Buterman's complaint.[3]

2011 Morinville controversy

[edit]

One anomaly of the school system in Alberta is that the Town of Morinville has only a public Catholic high school (part of the Greater St. Albert Catholic Regional Division), and no secular or Protestant high schools of any kind, when the surrounding Sturgeon County, is a part of the public Sturgeon School Division.[5] This led, in 2011, for non-Catholic parents to start an advocacy campaign to secularize education in Morinville.[6][7]
