That’s a wrap, folks! The 52nd Session of the Commission on Population and Development (CPD) has officially come to a close and, despite what you may think, there’s a bit of a fresh breeze blowing in. The pro-life movement has really hit its stride and this is no time to stop, slow down, or compromise.

I do not understand how the walls of the UN can say one thing (though, admittedly, in somewhat of a garbled manner, given the darker artwork), but the people within these walls say another.

The negotiations have been very slow going. Last night they were only on page 15 of a 40 page document. Tonight they enter into the final evening of negotiations.

The first two days of the second week have come to a close and while the focus of this week will be the negotiations, the events continue as per usual – some are a bit shocking and others are inspiring.

Days 4 and 5 were certainly eventful. On March 14th, the Netherlands hosted an event on the topic of “Advancing Sex Workers Rights” where panelists and attendees celebrated prostitution and its recent legalization in New Zealand, while ignoring the fact that this industry is fed largely by human trafficking.

These past few days have been extremely busy! Our team is stretched to the max attending as many events as possible, asking challenging questions, and engaging in vibrant conversations with both government officials and representatives from non-governmental organizations, who range from convicted on-side allies to radical oppositionists.

The 63rd Session of the Commission on the Status of Women is officially underway and our CLC delegation has been quick to engage with both the representatives present, and the material. Regrettably, much of what has already been discussed, whether it concerned the economic empowerment of Middle East and North African countries or the formation of boys and girls through the use of fairy tales, has been either subtly or blatantly used to promote abortion and related associates of the culture of death.

Yesterday marked the unfortunate passing of Dr. L. L. (“Barrie”) deVeber, founder of the first official pro-life group in Canada (Defense of the Unborn) and presenter of a pro-life petition of 1,027,425 signatures to Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau in 1975, the largest petition in Canadian history. He was also the president of many other pro-life groups, and founded the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition, the Human Life Research Institute (known as the DeVeber Institute) and Camp Trillium, the largest camp for cancer patients in North America. All this was done in addition to his work in hospitals in Africa, England, Canada, the Middle East, and the United States.
