 Next federal election?
The next federal election date depends upon whether the minority Conservative government will survive. Therefore the realistic date is unknown. If the Conservatives manage to survive the full term, the next election would fall on October 14, 2012.
However, the fractious nature of bipartisan power struggles makes most pundits believe that an earlier election will be called.
CLC believes it could be called in the fall of 2010. Therefore we need to be prepared and… we need your help to get election-ready!
State of the Federation
There is no denying that Canada's parliament is in bad shape. Only 20% of the Members of Parliament are pro-life.
In disastrous shape too, is our nation's news media which Canadians rely upon for unbiased election coverage. Every mainstream news outlet seems committed to protecting the abortion industry. Media too often shapes election results. Sadly, when a pro-life candidate enters a race, he or she often faces the extra challenge of the media using negative adjectives and descriptors on coverage of the pro-life candidate, while at the same time, using neutral or positive adjectives and language with the abortion choice candidate.
Despite the uphill climb, there is real hope for victory. Polls show that Canadians youth are increasingly pro-life. More Canadians now identify as pro-life than in decades. After decades of silence, many church leaders and young clergy are beginning to speak out against the evil of abortion. The momentum is definitely in our favour.
History shows that political leaders eventually follow when the people lead. This was the case with the US abolitionist movement to end slavery. Politicians who told Martin Luther King "Forget it. This is settled law, part of our social fabric and will never change", were soon enacting legislation to grant full legal status to blacks. The politicians followed when the people rose up demanding human rights for black people.
Similarly, Canadian politicians will follow the people when enough of us demand human rights for human children who are still in the womb.
