Researchers found that Indian-born women who immigrated to Canada give birth to 138 boys for every 100 girls. The global ratio for boy to girls births is about 107 boys [...]

There were confusing signals whether this would include abortion. The Globe and Mail reported [...]
Pro-lifers block the door at the Scott Clinic during a rescue, circa 1992. Toronto’s Scott abortion facility, run by abortionist Robert Scott and his wife Maria Corsillo, is “closing its doors after 29 years,” according to an announcement on its website. “Yes, we are closed,” a Scott Clinic staff person verified in a telephone call from LifeSiteNews, but refused to [...]
Since I began writing this column almost seven years ago, I have had a few mantras – dictums that I’ve thought you can rely on when judging popular culture and its baleful evolution. One is that cheaper usually beats better (as in mp3s or video on cellphones versus high end audio gear and movie theatres). Another is that there’s no such thing [...]

Few people will be surprised that Justin Trudeau was going to push a pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia agenda considering he banned pro-lifers from running as Liberal candidates. What might have been surprising is how quickly the new government began to push the Culture of Death. Within two weeks of being sworn in, the new Health and Justice ministers announced that the expert committee advising [...]
Health Minister Jane Philpott Replying to an inquiry from the CBC, federal Health Minister Jane Philpott said the government will “equalize” abortion “access” across Canada, which abortion advocates claim is not universally easy throughout the country.

A 2013 study from The Linacre Quarterly challenges the myth that women are 14 times likelier to die from childbirth than abortion. Dr. Byron Calhoun, vice chair of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of West Virginia, writes of several factors that “make a valid scientific assessment of abortion mortality extremely difficult.” One problem in the United States is [...]
A weed, by definition, is just a plant in the wrong place. Dandelions on a green lawn and oak trees in an apple orchard are only weeds because the gardener’s wishes make them so. Last month, Canada legalized RU-486, the abortifacient drug sometimes known as “the human pesticide.” This lethal, murderous drug has no place in a civilized society; it is a [...]
Health Canada has approved the use of abortion pill RU-486 for up to 49 days gestation with a doctor’s prescription.
