PC LEADER JOE CLARK'S PRO-ABORTION EXTREMISM

CALGARY, Nov 14 (LSN.ca) - On Sunday, Progressive Conservative Party Leader Joe Clark once again admitted that he is pro-abortion but this time spoke out against a democratic resolution to the controversy. Running against Canadian Alliance MP and pro-lifer Eric Lowther, Clark has made abortion a major issue in his campaign. Clark's comments implied that only men are concerned with the right to life of the unborn and that he would not even tolerate a referendum on the issue.

The Toronto Star reports that after saying that he unequivocally supports a "woman's right to choose", he said, "It is simply unacceptable that there should be a suggestion that . . . 500,000 men in the country could force a referendum on a woman's right to choose."
