OXBOW, SASK.—A school board in southeastern Saskatchewan, where many people work in the energy industry, is apologizing after some parents took offence to a Christmas play with an environmental theme. Further on, children sing: “Nothing at all could this holiday spoil, except for the price of a barrel of oil. The logo on the Town of Oxbow website features an oil pumpjack, and the site notes it’s an area rich in oil. The school’s principal, Jason Petlak, forwarded inquiries to the school board. The statement from Little said the school board “will learn from this event and commit to moving forward.”
