“Abortion king” comes in from the cold

The man who admits he “uncaged the abortion monster in the Western world” is now taking instruction in the Catholic Church Father Frank Pavone, the leader of Priests for Life, calls Bernard Nathanson’s story a testimony to the grace of God.  Indeed once you’ve heard the account, it is hard to argue otherwise. Nathanson, in his own words, helped “uncage the abortion [...]

Past Interim editor named on hit list

It was, for all intents and purposes, a hit list and had it not targeted pro-lifers, they wouldn’t have gotten away with it. In April, a free “entertainment” paper available on the streets of Montreal called the Mirror, (similar to Now Magazine in Toronto) printed an article with the banner headline “HLI’s top 10 extremists.” The article was an attempt to discredit [...]

Mob rules in Old Montreal

As the large, heavy doors of Old Montreal’s beautiful Notre Dame Basilica slowly swung open, I could hardly believe what I was seeing. Dozens of helmeted and visored riot police clutching truncheons were roaming the street in front of the church.  Behind them, several hundred protestors kept back by metal barricades, were throwing various objects – glass-filled condoms, vegetables, firecrackers, bottles, eggs [...]

10 years at “the gates of hell”

An organization which has saved hundreds of babies from the jaws of death, marks a decade of fighting abortion on the frontlines “In as much as you did unto the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me.”  Matt. 25:40 Choose Life Canada was founded by the Reverend Ken Campbell on December 10, 1984, the day criminal abortions were [...]

Proving our peacefulness

Toronto Ten thousand Canadian dollars.  That’s a whole lot of money.  And it’s the amount which Campaign Life Coalition Toronto is willing to pay for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for the 1992 fire-bombing of the Morgentaler clinic. Some pro-life people have asked why a pro-life group would offer such a reward.  I certainly don’t speak [...]

No money for pro-life defendants

In a move which caught pro-lifer observers off-guard, a judge ruled that 16 of 18 pro-life activists who were named in an Ontario lawsuit will not receive legal expenses. With the exception of Erroll Alchim, Justice George Adams ruled that the 16 other defendants must cover their own legal expenses.  Jane Ubertino (also dropped from the suit), who was represented by Peter [...]

Planned Parenthood loses regional funding

Local groups hope that victory will have domino-effect in other communities Waterloo, Ont. Recent Waterloo budget cuts have left area pro-lifers ecstatic and Planned Parenthood out of pocket. In a surprising move, Waterloo Regional Council, which represents surrounding cities, voted 13-12 against providing the country’s largest contraceptive/abortion promoting organization with its annual $32,250 grant. When local pro-life groups discovered that the vote [...]

Accusations stun pro-life group

Anti-Semitic claims “preposterous” maintains HLI president Montreal – Despite a storm of accusations, all things are go for Human Life International’s “You are the Light of the World” conference, set for Montreal in April. The controversy began in January when Stephen Scheinberg, vice-president B’nai B’rith Canada, accused world-wide pro-life group Human Life International and its founder, Rev. Paul Marx, of being anti-Semitic.  [...]

A.G.’s office pushes for trial

Attempts to settle the Ontario government’s suit against the pro-life movement have failed and the case will now go to trial. In August 1994, Justice George Adams issued a temporary injunction which placed restrictions on pro-life activities in front of 18 locations across the province. The Attorney General’s office, representing the abortion industry, has decided it is not pleased with Justice Adams’ [...]

U.S. groups deny links to New Year’s Eve shootings

The pro-life movement is once again in the position of denying any links with violent protest. On New Year’s Eve, John Salvi, a 22-year-old hairdressing student from Hampton, N.H., walked into two separate Boston-area abortion centres and opened fire, killing two workers and injuring five others.  He then climbed into his car, drove over 800 km to Norfolk, V.A., and sprayed another [...]

Where’s the proof?

“He that first cries out stop thief, is often he that has stolen the treasure.” William Congreve (1670-1729) Who shot abortionist Garson Romalis?  Who bombed Henry Morgentaler’s abortion clinic in 1992? The pro-abortion movement, with intense media support, has incessantly pointed the finger at the pro-life movement.  Now, however, it has broken with tradition, blaming the neo-Nazi movement in conjunction with pro-lifers.

Among other information, the Star reported that, “the [CSIS] source believed the bombing of Dr. Henry Morgentaler’s Toronto abortion clinic in 1992 was done by a [...]

CLC offers $10,000 for info

Group also initiates independent investigation into fire The president of Campaign Life Coalition says the pro-life community is tired of being blamed for something it didn’t do. Now Jim Hughes is prepared to offer big money to prove the movement’s innocence. The responsibility for the May 1992 fire-bomb which destroyed Henry Morgentaler’s Toronto abortuary has always rested squarely on the shoulders of [...]
