Jerry Vink , the association's executive director , said the issue does raise questions of human rights.
The Rights of the Child , which was enacted by both the Government of Canada and United Nations , speaks to the appropriateness of education , including the development of respect for the child's parents..
In human rights one of the things that we recognize is the education of a child should involve the parents and they should be aware of what goes on in the school , Vink said.
Vink said the activities , which occurred Tuesday , did not - in his opinion - present a message of understanding , peace and tolerance as identified in the Rights of the Child.
It's the kind of one-sided , biased views that have no place in the educational process , he said.
