The NDP Socialist Caucus was proud to organize a public hearing which posed the question “Should Ontario End Public Funding of Catholic Schools?” Featured were NDP Hamilton Centre activist Robert Barlow, researcher Abby Deshman, school board trustee Jan Johnstone, Socialist Caucus Steering Committee member John Orrett, and renowned professor Peter Russell.
Over seventy people attended the event. Most agreed that the use of taxpayer dollars going towards separated Catholic school boards was not only discriminatory, but served to waste precious resources and divided children on religious and even ethnic lines.
