MORGENTALER CELEBRATES 10 YEAR HORRIFIC ANNIVERSARY

OTTAWA, Jan 28 (LSN)—While pro-lifers bemoan the horrific Supreme Court Decision removing even the remotest protection for the pre-born, Henry Morgentaler revels about the success of his morbid cause. “I take great personal satisfaction when I think back on that,” says Morgentaler. “It was a very stressful time for me. When I look back on the accomplishments, I’m very proud of myself.”  Morgentaler has even dreamt up advantages of abortion which would strech the imagination of most pro-aborts. He asserts that, “Fewer unwanted children are being born, therefore there are fewer young males that commit crimes that have rage and violence in their hearts. This is a trend that will continue.”  The sobering reality is that since 1970, there have been over 1.8 million abortions committed in Canada. In 1995 alone, the latest year in which statistics are available, there were 106,658 abortions performed. As June Scandifio, president of The Right to Life Association of Toronto and Area, wrote in a press release, there is no legal “right” to an abortion in Canada: rather, there is now no abortion law because of the Supreme Court decision. Canada remains the only major Western country with no legal protection for the preborn whatsoever.  In the Drummond case, a baby boy was shot in the head (via the vagina) just 2 days before birth.  Because the child was preborn during the attack, he was not considered a “person” and the Crown couldn’t prosecute. In the glue-sniffing case in Manitoba, the preborn child’s welfare was ignored once again because legally he was not considered a “person”.
