(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The University of Alberta ’s president is singing the praises of a pro-homosexual institute even after revelations it runs a government website for kindergarten to Grade 12 students that provided links to graphic homosexual content. In an email to Brian Rushfeldt, founder and former president of Canada Family Action, University of Alberta president David Turpin lauded  the Institute for Sexual Minorities Studies and Services, part of the university’s education faculty, as “groundbreaking and nationally recognized.” Alberta blogger Teresa Ng broke the story in mid-March that the ISMSS created and oversees the NDP government-funded Alberta Gay Straight Alliance Network website, which linked to  “gay” sex sites  as “resources.” Notable among these was Fruit Loop, a pro-LGBTQ site linking to sexually explicit posts with such content as “images of

Alberta education minister: It’s ‘extremist’ to say parents have right to know when child joins LGBT club

Alberta NDP Education Minister Dave Eggen has slammed Jason Kenney ’s defence of parental rights as “extremist.” Kenney, newly elected leader of the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party , told  Postmedia’s  editorial board Tuesday he would not repeal Bill 10, which mandates schools must provide pro-homosexual gay-straight alliance (GSA) clubs if a student requests it. "I do, however, think that parents have a right to know what's going on with their kids in the schools unless the parents are abusive," added Kenney. “I don’t think it’s right to keep secrets from parents about challenges their kids are going through.” The education system “should be predicated on the presumption that the vast majority of parents are good, loving, caring people who have the best interests of their children at heart,” he said. Eggen, who last week ordered two  private Christian  schools to allow GSAs or be shut down, reacted quickly. “Jason Kenney has shown, once you scra

Alberta NDP gvmt closes down Christian home-schooling association – pretense funding – truth – gay policy

Alberta ’s largest Christian home-schooling association has been effectively shut down by the province’s NDP government after it found what Education Minister David Eggen called a “fail[ure] to demonstrate accountability of funding received from the government of Alberta.” But the association is denying wrongdoing. “WISDOM/Trinity has been shut down by AB Education. They announced this with a press release filled with partial truths amounting to calumny,” the association stated in a press release on Tuesday. An ; audit by the ministry   found what it claimed to be various spending irregularities of taxpayer dollars. In Alberta, each home-schooled child under the wing of a private school such as WISDOM/Trinity is   allotted   $1,670 of taxpayer funds to cover learning expenses such as curriculum. The audit claimed to find that money that should have been spent on educating students was used to fund inappropriate expenses such as babysitting, funeral expenses, and doubl

Courageous Christians Resisting the Rainbow Warriors

Homosexual marriage changes everything. I and others have made this warning for decades now. And on a daily basis we see the frightening truth of this. Everyone is impacted by such radical social and legal changes. We are all at risk. And Christians are especially being targeted. I have documented numerous cases of anti- Christian bigotry both in my books and on my website. One could monitor all this on a full time basis, and still have a hard time keeping up. Here are more cases of the attack on faith and freedom by the homosexual militants. But these are also stories of courageous Christian resistance. Here I offer three recent stories coming out of North America of steadfast believers who have refused to bow the knee to the rainbow gods, but have stood fast, even when that means suffering very real consequences. The first story comes from Illinois: A Christian’s 14-year career is being threatened because he refused to watch a training video on lesbian, homosexual, bi

Alberta gvmt threatens to defund Christian schools that won’t comply with gay, trans mandate

Education Minister David Eggen says he’s willing to strip two Christian schools of their public funding if they won’t abandon their Christian principles and allow clubs promoting homosexuality and/or transgender students in washrooms of the opposite sex. These measures are part of the New Democratic government’s anti-bullying policies that single out sexual minorities for protection, though surveys indicate that physical appearance and grades are far more likely causes of school bullying. Last month, Spruce Grove Baptist pastor Brian Coldwell, who is also chairman of an independent Christian school board with two small schools with 200 students, said neither cross-gendered washrooms nor gay straight alliances would be allowed in his schools. Asked about Coldwell’s comments at a school opening where he was joined by Premier Rachel Notley, Eggen said, “It’s not acceptable, not just for the kids that are attending those schools, but it sends a negative message across the provi
