DISCLAIMER: Not from Canada and don't live there
I don't know how I'd feel about a political comparison chart made by a religous organisation
Canadian here. Our taxes pay for Catholic schools, so the comparison (even from them), is pretty valid.
Your taxes don’t pay for the catholic board unless you designate them as such
Edit: I was slightly misinformed about this

The downvotes on my comment made me double check and I’m slightly misinformed. You can direct where your property taxes go, but property taxes only make up a third of our education budget. Time to get those pitchforks back out.
