TEACHING OF RELIGION IN SCHOOL UNCONSTITUTIONAL....
http://archives.cbc.ca/soci...
Broadcast Date:
June 23, 1963
In 1963 the United States Supreme Court rules that reciting the Lord's Prayer in classrooms is unconstitutional. In Canada, reaction to the U.S. ruling is mixed. Many Manitobans are shocked but feel "it can't happen here." In Ontario, many feel that the ruling is a move against religious discrimination.
In Alberta there is sharp criticism to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision, feeling it was an extreme act of separation of church and state. In British Columbia, there is disappointment because the ruling means freedom of choice is denied. Interestingly, initial surveys find no strong reaction expressed in Quebec, the Maritimes and Newfoundland.
******************************
If large numbers of people are interested in freedom of speech, there will be freedom of speech, even if the law forbids it. If public opinion is sluggish, inconvenient minorities will be persecuted, even if the laws exist to protect them.....George Orwell
