Of all the weak pro-abortion arguments; perhaps the weakest is the inability to admit that life begins at conception, that a human being with full personhood exists at that time. Pro-abortionists prefer to degrade the newly formed human by naming it a 'blob of tissue' or 'just an egg cell'. These phrases are both inaccurate, and scientifically incorrect. Life, for any organism, [...]
A flood of critical court cases is expected across Canada in the next few years as pro-abortionists and others try to use various dangerous clauses in the new Canadian Charter of Rights to bring in abortion on demand, etc. It is vital, therefore, that the pro-life movement in this country have on call lawyers who are knowledgeable and up-to-date on all the [...]
Politics and religion are the subjects of yesterday's fights. There are today two statements which guarantee changing a pleasant conversation among friends into a hostile brawl. To say either "I am pro-life," or "I am a feminist," will start the attack. To say "I am a pro-life feminist" will ensure a full-scale war. Feminism is a lot more than bra-burning and uni-sex [...]
What has become known to history as the "Nuremberg Trial" began on November 20th, 1945. An indictment was lodged against twenty-four former Nazi leaders, charging them with numerous crimes against peace, conventional war crimes, and crimes against humanity. The chief crime was the killing of millions of innocent human beings, not only Jews (the largest number) but also gypsies (the most exterminated [...]
The editor of Homemaker's Magazine, Jane Gale and its resident hard-line feminist columnist, Penney Kome, obviously see that the purpose of the magazine is to serve as consciousness raiser for the teeming masses of ignorant Canadian women who do not even realize that they are being oppressed. Consequently, many of the articles do not lend themselves to the "homemaker" image and the [...]
Catherine Bolger and the members of Parents for Responsible Education and Family Health who helped battle the Provincial government on Bill 138. Their research and efforts aided the coalition of various pro-life, pro-family groups who met with Premier Davis, Health Minister Larry Grossman and Education Minister Bette Stephenson on Monday February 14, 1983.

It's becoming increasingly clear that neither the Conservatives nor the Liberals want to choose a leader who is sympathetic to Pro-Life concerns. Of the P.C. Party hopefuls, neither Mulroney, Blaikie, Crombie, Crosby nor Clark would bring any significant change in present party policy. Crosby did admit during the 1981 Convention that it was politically expedient to be Pro-Life in his riding! Jake [...]
A pastoral letter read in Catholic Churches in the Archdiocese of Vancouver informed Catholics that funds would no longer be accepted from United Way Appeal. The reason given is that "a financially participating agency of the United Way appears to promote or support abortion". We are extremely heartened by the united front which has emerged from religious groups. Margaret Fraser of Christians [...]
1) To reaffirm that the family is society's most important unit, since the nurturing of children is best accomplished in the family setting. 2) To promote, defend and secure legislation which upholds the Judeo-Christian view of traditional marriage and family (family meaning two or more people living together related by blood, marriage or adoption.) 3) To support policies for women in the [...]
The need to organize a group of intelligent, articulate women, who uphold pro-life and pro-family values, has become pressing in the last year. Increasingly, strident feminists speaking on behalf of all Canadian women, without our knowledge or consent, have been representing us. Recent examples were the inclusion of the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1982 Canadian Constitution, and the trial balloon of [...]
Our new coast-to-coast, pro-life newspaper will inform you of the many successes and fewer (hopefully) failures in the day to day battle to protect unborn babies. The philosophy of this monthly will always be one of no compromise on abortion. A human life, from the moment of conception represents an individual, precious gift from God. The Latin motto Semper Fidelis appears to [...]
Archbishop Edmund C. Szoka of Detroit demanded the resignation of Sister Agnes Mary Mansour as state Social Services director because of her support of state-funded abortions. "If you are opposed to abortion (as Sister Mansour says she is), how can you not be opposed to the funding of abortion?" Detroit's Roman Catholic archbishop asked yesterday at a press conference. A spokesperson for [...]
The Minister of Health in the Ontario Government has spent several years drafting a very ominous piece of legislation known as Bill 138 which deals with health protection in the province. This bill has serious ramifications for Ontario and the pro-life movement for the following reasons: (1) The programs and services of the local boards of health under this legislation would change [...]
The Most Rev. James F. Carney, Archbishop of Vancouver, in a letter to the pastors of the Vancouver Archdiocese dated January 1983, removed the Catholic Community and charities from funding provided by United Way. The association had lasted for the past 50 years. The move, effective January 1st of this year, was made to demonstrate the disappointment with United Way permitting Panned [...]
