7-Jan-06. Holy Spirit school division not gambling on casino revenue. Lethbridge Herald, A4.

Catholic school officials in Lethbridge won’t need to wade into the debate over casino fundraising as the school division does not use this form of fundraising according to the chairman of the board of the Holy Spirit School Division. Bishop Fred Henry of the Calgary Catholic Diocese – to which Lethbridge belongs – has said using casinos to raise money for schools is a detriment to family values, because of the negative effects of gambling on many Albertans.
