Alberta Religious Groups Funded by Canada Summer Jobs

Slowly, but slowly, we're working our way through the list of religious groups that have applied for and will get Canada Summer Jobs grants. To counter the totally false spin that NO religious groups applied or were not rejected.

Next up, Alberta. By riding, with MP and party affiliation.

Note: I was going by name only. All (known) religious groups got tagged. Others that sounded "churchy" got checked. Caps and quotation marks from original document. Where "no website" is noted I could not find a website for that particular group. (Obviously there is a website for "United Church of Canada" but sometimes I couldn't find one specific to that riding.) Where a link is not provided, it is elsewhere in this blogpost.

Remember that MPs get final say -- if they want it -- in which groups get funded.

There are a couple of Catholic organizations here. I wonder if they will give back the money as demanded by the bishops.

There is also a Twitter thread.
