28-Sep-06. Bishop, school board strike fundraising deal. Calgary Herald, A1.
A deal was reached between the Calgary Catholic school board and Bishop Fred Henry over raising funds by volunteering at local casinos. Parent groups will only be allowed to continue fundraising at casinos through the 2006-07 school year. A task force will be charged with finding other sources of revenue to replace the $2-million collected by the councils at bingos and casinos in a typical year.
