40 Years of Abortion Almost 40 years ago on May 14, 1969 an Omnibus bill was passed in Canadian Parliament which legalized abortion. Today, a woman can legally kill her unborn baby for any reason, at any time, up until the moment of birth. The scientific fact that human life begins at conception is ignored by politicians. The humanity of unborn babies is unjustly denied.
Demanding Social Justice The fight to end abortion is a civil rights movement every bit as important as that of Martin Luther King’s to end slavery. The slaughter of innocent human beings via abortion is the human rights issue of our day. For 12 consecutive years, Campaign Life Coalition has organized the flagship event of the Canadian civil rights movement which demands the legal right to life for all unborn children from the moment of conception. This is called the National March For Life. In 2008, this March had 8000 attendees, over half of which were youth!
