In most cases, Friday is the time for unpleasant political news.
In this case it is more than obvious this is considered a very political decision.
The story behind the case is also telling. a community that does not warrant a public school can sustain a religious one, or two, maybe three, or more.
I have an idea, transfer the native school funds to the Catholics too, they have done such a great job "beating the Indian out of the Indian" last time.
Before you tag me as "Islamophobic" or atheist, name any religion that ever accepted religious freedom.
