Not a good month It has been a brutal month for North American radical homosexual lobby groups. First came President Clinton’s waffling on allowing homosexuals in the military. Next came the crushing findings of an Allan Guttmacher (Planned Parenthood) survey which revealed that only 2% of North American men have ever engaged in homosexual conduct and that just over 1% considered themselves [...]
UNICEF’s Collaborators Among the recommendations which UNICEF endorsed at a 1987 Kenya Conference were: “Community education programmes should emphasize the risks involved in pregnancy in order to ensure social support of contraceptive practice.” “This conference…calls on the sponsoring organizations to further extend their collaboration at a notional level…” Two of the sponsoring collaborators of UNICEF are perhaps less well known. The Population [...]
I feel sorry for all those poor media types who have recently, in numerous heart rending columns, eulogized the brave and courageous Anita Hill. Here she is hobnobbing with the likes of Hilary Clinton and Gloria Steinem and being named Vanity Fair’s Woman of the Year. Why she’s even given credit for the election of President Clinton, the number of women elected [...]
Germany – With a recent decision on abortion availability, the German Supreme Court has taken modest steps towards advancing the pro-life cause in Europe. In a controversial ruling on May 27, Germany’s top judges overturned a liberal abortion law which would have allowed virtual abortion on demand. Under the new legislation, abortion will remain legal up to three months or in the [...]
A distinguished guest slipped into the April board meeting of The Interim a few weeks ago. He was awaiting a ride to Toronto International Airport. Impeccably dressed in gray flannel suit, he sat with us at the board table, sipping coffee, breaking bread and joining in the discussions. When the topic of story ideas arose, someone suggested that we do an informal [...]
Text from a speech given in Vancouver by pro-life MP, Don Boudria Before I begin to talk to you about what we are fighting for, let me take a moment to tell you who and what I am not fighting against. I know that there are many people who endure physical and mental pain when they are terminally ill. One such person [...]
Perhaps we in the pro-life movement feel that we have had quite a lot of bad news in recent months. First, the election of an avidly pro-abortion President in the United States, with a fully supportive wife, was certainly a blow for the unborn babies of that “great” nation. Then the shocking murder of the abortionist in Florida was used widely by [...]

Director Kenneth Branagh continues to work his way through the Shakespeare cannon playing opposite his wife Emma Thompson again in this comedy classic. The interplay between Branagh, who plays Benedick, and Thompson, who is a marvelous Beatrice, alone makes this movie worth watching. Branagh sets this comedy in a villa in the luscious Tuscany countryside in the summer. The scene evokes the [...]
As the abortionists and their supporters in the Ontario government seek an injunction banning pro-life activity, the media have played a very important role – and have done real damage to the pro-life movement. Media accounts of the pro-life picketing regularly portray pro-lifers as dangerous fanatics. Abortion clinic operators have been quoted alleging that clients have been assaulted, shoved to the ground, [...]

Canadian courts flex new muscle over abortion debate Near the end of a 1989 appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada, Henry Morgentaler was holding court in a hotel room with the cream of Canada’s media elite. “The tone was informal,” says F.L. Morton in his wide-ranging study, Morgentaler V. Borowski: Abortion, the Charter and the Courts. “The reporters chatted and joked [...]

Yet family planning programmes continue even though in many countries, such as Nigeria, there are far fewer people than was [...]
