A Planned Parenthood organization has been banned from schools in a Canadian province after children were offered an ‘A to Z’ guide that included descriptions of extreme sex acts.
Planned Parenthood Regina, in Saskatchewan, delivered a seminar to Grade 9 students at Lumsden High School before children were able to take the card game that included a series of explicit terms and definitions.
Some parents complained and the Saskatchewan Education Minister, Dustin Duncan, announced that Planned Parenthood Regina has now been suspended from working in the region’s schools.
‘It’s completely inappropriate to be in a classroom and has no part of being in a classroom,’ Duncan said.
A spokesman for Prairie Valley School Division, where the school is based, said the material was ‘inappropriate’ and it has asked Planned Parenthood to remove it from ‘future school presentations’.
Planned Parenthood had delivered a sexual health presentation to a Grade 9 health class.
The controversial ‘A to Z’ guide – which was ‘intended for gay, bi and queer young people’ – was not referred to in the presentation but it was ‘available at a side table after the presentation’.
Definitions of extreme sex acts included explicit language and were accompanied with cartoon portrayals. MailOnline has decided not to report some of the material because of its explicit nature.
The school division spokesman said: ‘While the presentation itself was aligned with the Saskatchewan curriculum, the presenter brought a secondary resource which was not.
‘A single copy of this resource was taken by one of the students.’
