Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from National Schools for Manitoba "That the school system of Manitoba is accomplishing much less than a national system should, is no cause for surprise. Evidently with those who legislated it into existence, the bonafide education of the people was a consideration secondary to making the public schools nurseries for the Roman Catholic Church." - Mr. W. F. Luxton to the Electors of Rockwood in November 1874. Before Manitoba became a portion of the Dominion there were no school laws within its boundaries, and no public schools. Several schools were carried on by the Anglican, Roman Catholic and Presbyterian bodies, but they were private enterprises supported by fees and out of church funds. The schools of the various denominations were as distinct from one another as private institutions always are. After the union a public school system was created by which this separation was kept up so far as Roman Catholics were concerned, while all the other classes of the community became united. A Board of Education was created consisting of two sections, one Protestant and the other Roman Catholic, with two superintendents, and two sets of machinery for the management of the schools, and each section was given absolute control over its own schools. While the Roman Catholic section of the Board was properly so called, the other section including as it did, not only all other denominations, but the public at large, should have been called public or national rather than Protestant. From the time that the two sections undertook their respective duties, undenominational religious exercises were carried on in the schools of the Protestant section, and sectarianism and doctrinal teaching were carefully avoided.
