Adoption is very much a pro-life matter. An orphaned child, the child of an unwed mother who can't cope, a foundling - all are children who, like any others, require a family, a mother and father, and a home. They require in a fundamentally biological way, a mother to nourish and care for their needs as babies - otherwise they will die. [...]
The following is the first in a group of articles composing a brief presented by Mrs. Shirley Pennell and Mrs. Penny Costin to the Hamilton Board of Education on Tuesday, March 1st, 1983. We are representatives of a group recently formed in many areas of the province of Ontario called 'Parents for Responsible Education and Family Health'. The number of parents concerned [...]
A critical comment on 'Ethical Reflections on the Economic Crisis', a report from the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops. At Campaign Life's request, Professor Robin Richardson prepared, on short notice, this critique of the Bishop's report as a contribution to the public debate, which has begun.

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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
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)
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
