Harri Blankfield is currently staying in a ₤ 260-a-day suite at London's Hilton Hotel. She is an overweight, rich, short-necked American mother of two, regarded by some as a monster, by others as their pathway to fulfillment.

The federal New Democrat party is rapidly becoming the pro-death party. With their recent over-whelming resolutions endorsing abortion on demand, support for Henry Morgentaler and censure of their own provincial government in Manitoba, the NDP is quickly losing its pro-life supporters.

Abortion is not a war between two factions each capable of defending itself. Abortion is a war on children. There are two sides, true enough, but only one [...]
