There is a place in Canada that you won't find on any road map. It is called Liberal Heaven. It is not to be confused with the other Heaven because the stars there shine only for the Liberal Party and are justly rewarded for outstanding service. Attaining Liberal Heaven is not an easy feat. It requires sacrificing your integrity, personal convictions, the [...]
You couldn't make it up. I mean, really, you couldn't make it up. The way various actors, media figures and fellow travellers have rallied around Al Gore and Hillary Clinton, often motivated by support for abortion and homosexuality. Ted Turner was there, of course. And he is typical of the breed. Remember Ted? In 1990 the founder of CNN and vice-chairman of [...]

Commentary Paul Tuns The Interim Abortion was thrust upon the national stage during the federal election campaign after party leaders and the media lambasted Canadian Alliance leader Stockwell Day's pro-life position and the party's pro-referendum policy.

By Paul Tuns The Interim The head of the political arm of Canada's pro-life movement took a better-late-than-never approach to the prominence some religious leaders gave to abortion as an election issue for Christians to consider as they cast their votes on November 27. Campaign Life Coalition national president Jim Hughes told The Interim he would have preferred a generally stronger and earlier [...]
Eddie Goldenberg ran into Prime Minister Jean Crouton's office shortly after the federal election had been announced. Eddie screamed excitedly: "Denis Vincent is here! Denis says that he doesn't want to run against you this year!" Crouton is shocked. "What kind of a friend is he?! Does Denis want to see me defeated?! Show him in." Eddie darts out and Denis enters [...]
Even the media are growing weary of the government as Canadians prepare to cast their ballots By Paul Tuns The Interim The Liberal Party is adrift in a sea of arrogance which some observers hope will finally lead to a chastisement at the polls. The mainstream, often times sycophantic media has even criticized Prime Minister Jean Chretien for his last minute manipulations [...]
I am committed never again to cast a vote for a politician who would kill one innocent baby. These little ones have no defense except that which we provide for them. Never will I use my influence, however remotely, to support the shedding of their blood. If [one party] wants to defend "a woman's right to choose," and [another] wants to build [...]
Editorial The Interim, Nov. 2000 The basic principle of pro-life voting is the following: being pro-abortion (or "pro-choice") disqualifies a person for public office. This includes those who claim to be "personally opposed" to abortion, but are unwilling to do anything to stop it. The right to life is the fundamental human right, on which every other right depends. It follows that [...]
Party Policy Although the Liberal Party has never voted on abortion as party policy, the party as a whole is staunchly pro-abortion, leading Prime Minister Jean Chretien to declare on two occasions this year that "We Liberals support a woman's right to choose." The official Liberal Party response to the CLC Election 2000 questionnaire states that "the Liberal Party supports a woman's [...]
Jean Chretien - Liberal Mr. Chretien "in his main address to the Liberal Party convention on March 17, told 2,600 delegates that 'Canadians do not want a right-wing party in this country. They do not want a party that does not support women's right to choose.'" (LifeSite News, July 11, 2000) Speaking in Winnipeg, he said, "We Liberals believe in a woman's [...]
In an article on the front page of the Toronto Star of August 30, 2000, under the title, "Fiery Chretien hammers Day," the Prime Minister is quoted as accusing Canadian Alliance leader Stockwell Day of "trying to rob Canadian women of their right to choose an abortion." He continues, "We Liberals support a woman's right to choose, but he wants a divisive [...]
I blundered into a room in the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa recently looking for a washroom. I saw numerous cameras and lighting equipment and panic-stricken people running around. "What's going on?" I asked. "We're shooting a promo of the PM for the upcoming election," said a man standing at the back of the crowd. "We're going to have a federal election?!" "Shhh. [...]
Did you see that amazing story several weeks ago about how new Canadian Alliance leader Stockwell Day refused to join other MPs in standing to applaud as strident homosexual Member of Parliament Svend Robinson was introduced in the House of Commons? He said it had something to do with the New Democrat MP spending his entire parliamentary career advocating values inimical to [...]
