Interim Staff On May 12, NDP MLA Jennifer Bowes (Saskatoon University) introduced a private member’s bill, An Act to Provide Safe Access to Abortion Services, which, if passed, would create anti-free speech bubble zones of up to 150 meters around facilities that commit abortion in the province of Saskatchewan. Bowes said a law is necessary to prevent harassment and intimidation of women [...]
Josie Luetke: The sexual revolution is responsible for the rampant increase of abortion and a slew of other evils. This near-axiomatic notion was instilled in me early on, but as this upheaval was driven by social liberals, I thought of it as only affecting social liberals. Not so. Josh Duggar, the eldest of the kids on the show 19 Kids and Counting, [...]
Interim Staff: After numerous runs with various Big Tech platforms in the past, Facebook permanently banned LifeSiteNews’ Facebook page on May 4. LifeSiteNews reporter Doug Mainwaring said, “This apparently is not a temporary measure: It is gone for good.” A message was sent by email to the LifeSiteNews marketing department, accusing the pro-life news website of publishing “false information about COVID-19 that [...]
Mark Wegierski: The last several years have witnessed the brutal struggle between print media and social media -- broadcasters really -- like Facebook, Google, Instagram, and Twitter, in regards to consuming advertising budgets. Facebook now scoops up close to 80 per cent of advertising revenue, thus starving print media of much of its sources of income. Numerous daily and weekly newspapers have [...]
Rory Leishman In a pastoral letter issued on May 1, the Archbishop of San Francisco, Cardinal Salvatore Cordileone, has spelled out with admirable clarity why no faithful Christian cleric should allow a politician who aids and abets in committing the evils of abortion to take part in Holy Communion. Having earned a doctorate in canon law from the Pontifical Gregorian University in [...]

Alex Schadenberg: Euthanasia Prevention Coalition executive director Alex Schadenberg complains bill's terms are poorly defined. When Canada legalized euthanasia and assisted suicide (MAiD) in June 2016, a section of the legislation required the government to conduct a full five-year review of the legislation, starting in June 2020. Instead of conducting a full review of the law, the Canadian government decided [...]
Paul Tuns: On May 5, the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) released data on the country’s fertility rate, revealing that it has fallen to its lowest rate since such figures began being collected in the 1930s. The total fertility rate -- the average number of times a woman will give birth in her lifetime -- fell to 1.64 births per [...]
Andrew Lawton: Earlier this year, Pastor Artur Pawlowski became something of a libertarian folk hero when he chased police and public health inspectors out of his Calgary church while barking that they were “Nazis” and “Gestapo.” After a year of the state’s heavy hand coming down hard on churches (and businesses, and families, and individuals), it was cathartic to see the little [...]
Paul Tuns I want to bring to your attention three articles written about euthanasia over the last few days that are all very important. The first is the always pertinent Wesley Smith, at NRO, with an article titled, "Alzheimer’s Breakthrough and the False Compassion of Assisted Suicide." Smith notes: Alzheimer’s and other dementia patients are now in the cross hairs of the [...]
Oswald Clark: The U.S. Supreme Court said it would hear Mississippi’s appeal to defend its state law protecting the human right to life beginning at 15 weeks, a case that presents the most direct challenge to the infamous 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. In 2018, Mississippi’s state House of Representatives passed Bill 1510, the Gestational Stage Act, which outlaws almost all abortions [...]
Paul Tuns: DutchNews reports that in 2020 there was a record 6938 officially reported euthanasia deaths in 2020, up from 6361 the year before, an increase of nine per cent. The number of euthanasia cases exceeded the previous peak of 6585 deaths in 2017. Each year, Regional Euthanasia Review Committees (RTE) analyze all official deaths by euthanasia to ensure that they meet [...]
Interim Staff - During the Rose Dinner at the National March for Life, there was a panel discussion on the pro-life movement and cancel culture – the trend that sees attacks not only on the ideas that people hold, but the attempt to cancel the people who hold them from polite society, banishing them by firing them from their job, preventing them [...]
Rory Leishman In an attempt to justify their new, multi-billion dollar, “Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care Plan,” the Trudeau Liberals maintain that infants and toddlers generally thrive better under the care and guidance of professional child-care workers than their own parents. Is that right? The Department of Finance claims: “Studies by Canadians Dr. Fraser Mustard and the Honourable Margaret McCain have [...]
Interim Staff After convincing every public school board in Ontario to fly the rainbow pride flag -- the universal emblem of LGBTQ+ rights -- on board and school properties, gay activists focused their attention on the publicly funded Catholic school boards. After the separate boards in Waterloo and Thunder Bay voted earlier this year to begin flying the pride flag in June, [...]
