Citing:
At Parents for Choice in Education, we condemn the actions of the Alberta government to use public purse strings and threats of closure as a means of coercion wielded against thousands of Alberta families who stand to lose the schools in which their children are thriving.
'Aggressive attack' by Alberta Education threatens to destroy faith-based schools

Comparison:
Two Canadian provinces (Alberta and British Columbia) performed compulsory sterilization programs in the 20th century with eugenic aims. Canadian compulsory sterilization operated via the same overall mechanisms of institutionalization, judgment, and surgery as the American system. However, one notable difference is in the treatment of non-insane criminals. Canadian legislation never allowed for punitive sterilization of inmates.
The Sexual Sterilization Act of Alberta was enacted in 1928 and repealed in 1972. In 1995, Leilani Muir sued the Province of Alberta for forcing her to be sterilized against her will and without her permission in 1959. Since Muir’s case, the Alberta government has apologized for the forced sterilization of over 2,800 people. Nearly 850 Albertans who were sterilized under the Sexual Sterilization Act were awarded C$142 million in damages.

Alberta need not take another dip of public morality over 44 years, like the state did between 1928 and 1977. Can we get a somewhat quicker repeal this time?/HGL
