The Alberta government has proposed legislation
"which would require schools to notify parents in advance of "subject-matter that deals explicitly with religion, sexuality or sexual orientation," [it] is buried in a bill that extends human rights to homosexuals. Parents can ask for their child to be excluded from the discussion.
"This government supports a very, very fundamental right and that is parental rights with respect to education," said Premier Ed Stelmach.
Although Stelmach has confirmed the bill will give parents the authority to exclude their kids from classes if the topic of evolution comes up, Education Minister Dave Hancock said it won't change anything."
