CAMBRIDGE, Oct 10 (LSN.ca) - A petition from the St. Ambrose council of the Catholic Women's League is the final attempt to have the League disassociate from the pro-abortion World March of Women. Annelise Steden told LifeSite that she hopes the petition may be used by other CWL members frustrated with the Women's March controversy. The petition says that the CWL members "have lost faith and confidence in our national leadership specifically in reference to;
1) its decision to support the World March of Women 2000
2) its lack of consultation with regard to commitment of the League's support to the March
3) its lack of dissemination of relevant information regarding the March of Women 2000 "demands."
4) its disregard for League guidelines on "coalition/affiliation, co-operation and sponsorship with other organizations."
The petition asks:
1) That the National Executive of the Catholic Women's League withdraw League support from the March forthwith.
2) That the National Executive withdraw national Catholic Women's League membership from the Women's Interchurch Council of Canada.
3) That the National Executive of the Catholic Women's League of Canada tender their resignations.
The petition is available on LifeSite at:
