NANAIMO, BC, September 25, 2001 (LSN.ca) – On Friday, former abortionist Dr. Mark Walter Stewart was convicted on 10 of 12 counts involving assaults on nine female patients. Stewart, of Campbell River, BC, will be sentenced Nov. 30.

In reporting this case, the media have consistently failed to admit Stewart performed abortions. The coverage by CP today refers to him as a “retired doctor” and says the assaults occurred “at Stewart’s family practice.” When the case hit the media in July, Campbell River-area pro-lifers told LifeSite that Stewart was an abortionist. John Hof, President of Campaign Life Coalition BC, told LifeSite: “If Stewart were in dentistry or psychiatry he would be identified as a dentist or a psychiatrist, however, since he is an abortionist he is only referred to as a local physician. Interesting.”

Earlier reports indicated that well-known abortionist Ellen Wiebe was to testify against her colleague at the trial noting that sexual touching is not associated with medical examinations.
