The Playboy connection

In case you didn't read it, or didn't know, the Playboy Foundation was directly involved in the U.S Supreme Court Decision, Roe vs. Wade, which brought abortion on demand to that country. The Playboy Foundation funded all the legal research in that case. As seen below in Hugh Hefner's own words, this foundation and its magazine demonstrate their anti-life, anti-family philosophy beyond [...]

The oath of medical ethics

If the physician presumes to take into consideration in his work whether a life has value or not, the consequences are boundless and the physician becomes the most dangerous man in the state." The above statement was not made in 1983 by the President of Right to Life or by a Roman Catholic bishop. It was made by a German physician named [...]

Reflections on the NDP policy

I have received a letter dated February 8th, 1983 with a copy of the NDP Report of the Joint Caucus Party Committee on Abortion. First of all I have to say that I cannot understand its statement that the selected excerpts sent out by Campaign Life gave a "very distorted picture of the statement". That the Committee is asking for abortion on [...]

Pro-life challenge to the leadership candidates

It is vital for Canada that P.C Party have a leader who, not only respects human life in all its stages and all its conditions, but one who is prepared to act positively to protect that life. The "I am personally against abortion, but" mentality is worse than useless, and it has been amply proved that we have a superfluity of such [...]

Christian Cultural Award … a bogus medal

Jean Chrétien should know better than to say, "I will not impose my convictions on people who do not have my faith." (The Windsor Star, Monday, April 11, 1983). Mr. Chrétien is imposing his convictions on people who do not have his faith every time an unborn child is slaughtered through abortion, and Mr. Chrétien knows it. Everyone knows that Mr. Chrétien [...]

Another Man for All Seasons

Somebody has said, "I like witnesses who get killed." So do I but I have to confess that I belong to another ilk! Since history began there have been as many causes as there have been decades, and each cause produces its own heroes, its own witnesses who set no boundaries to the sacrifices demanded; men and women who are prepared to [...]

7,000 March for Life in Toronto

Lead by a pipe band and carrying banners and placards to state their knowledge, about 7,000 Pro-Life supporters marched in silence down University Avenue. The crowds occupied three lanes of pavement and stretched from Queen's Park to well past Elm street. The march went past Mount Sinai Hospital, the hospital for Sick Children, Toronto General Hospital and, of course, the Ontario Parliament [...]

Retraction

A small notice in the April edition of The Interim entitled "Homemakers' Magazine was in fact A RETRACTION, an apology on our part to: Maple Leaf Mills. We include this extra retraction, as the former may have been unclear.  (The Editors)

Union Workers for Life formed in California

An organization of union members, which has established six chapters in California to oppose abortion on demand, has called on "every union in the United States" to adopt a pro-life stance and work for the passage of a constitutional amendment to protect the unborn. Union Workers for Life also urged AFL-CIO to adopt a pro-life resolution, insist on a pro-life "plank" at [...]

Winnipeg abortion clinic opens

Morgentaler announced with great fanfare that he had officially opened his clinic in Winnipeg and that he was performing abortions there. This categorically is not true. No abortions have to date been performed in his clinic. Women have been seen going in and out of his clinic but they are members of the pro-abortion organization called "Reproductive Choice". In any case, Morgentaler [...]

They are pro-abortionists by any name

The pro-abortionists have always been incensed that anyone who believes in the protection of human life is referred to publicly as being "pro-life". Similarly they have cringed at being called, what they are in fact, namely, pro-abortion. Anyone who believes in the legal and social acceptance of abortion, however, is pro-abortion, whether they like it or not. In order to get around [...]

The pro-abortionists imposing censorship

Pro-abortion ideology is dangerous, not only because of its attempts to completely deny the right to life to one part of the human family, but also, because the pro-abortionists, in order to impose this ideology, are fully prepared to curtail the civil rights of everyone and impose absolute censorship in order to obtain acceptance of the ideology. Examples of this have been [...]

How Ireland fared

Tragically the present government of Ireland under Premier Garret Fitzgerald has gone back on its earlier solemn promise to support a Human Life Amendment to the Irish Constitution. It has proposed a wording that can only be described as an absolute pro-life disaster. The wording does not fulfill the government's commitment to a pro-life amendment. It does not prohibit abortion but rather [...]

Kitchener-Waterloo Right to Life runs with buses

It began in March of this year and continues until March 1984, that posters were permitted placement on Kitchener-Waterloo buses. Members of the K-W Right to Life Association approached the Transit Commission there, who in turn had to clear the move with the Regional Council. The advertisement was approved because of freedom of speech as opposed to a pro-life attitude on the [...]
