OTTAWA, April 22, 2014 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Nobody likes finding out they have been lied to. But on the topic of abortion, this is precisely what has happened according to the Catholic Organization for Life and Family (COLF).

“For decades, abortion ‘rights’ proponents have fed Canadians the lie that access to abortion is good for women,” stated COLF, an organization co-sponsored by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Supreme Council of the Knights of Columbus.

In preparation for the upcoming National March for Life in Ottawa on May 8, COLF released a statement exposing the “lie” of abortion.

“In so many ways, abortion, far from advancing the welfare of females, represents a grave threat to their welfare and to the welfare of society at large. Surely, we are justified in asking why so many in our society continue to believe the abortion lie, how so many are able to ignore the truth that abortion hurts women.”

COLF said financial gain is a main driving force behind the abortion industry and its recent push to bring the controversial chemical abortion method RU-486 into the country.

“The abortion lie continues to be nurtured by interests which stand to gain financially from its perpetuation.”

COLF said the time has come to end the lie.

“When will enough be enough? How many women need to die, to be maimed, or to find themselves haunted by the ill-informed decisions of their youth – how many unborn children must die—before the abortion lie is revealed for what it is?”

“To that end we must unite our voices and our actions in proclaiming the inherent dignity and value of every human life from the first moment of conception to natural death. RU4 Life?”
