12-Jan-06. Trustee outraged by casino decision. Calgary Sun, 10.

Trustee Michael O’Malley said the Catholic school board committed a moral failure last night when it refused to forbid schools from using casinos as fundraisers. The motion put before the board was to prevent any Catholic school in Calgary from using casinos and for trustees to forego public consultation on the issue. The motion was deferred by the board to an unspecified time after consultation takes place in the spring.
