WINNIPEG, April 28, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A medical student in his last year at the University of Manitoba Medical School who was threatened for years with failure for his unwillingness to partake in any abortion-related activity has finally been reinstated in good standing.

The Christian student, who wishes to remain unnamed, has for years lost successive appeals on a failing grade in an Obstetrics and Gynecology portion of his program for his refusal to perform or refer for any abortive procedure. Prior to this reversal, three separate appeals to the Medical School beginning in October last year all failed to correct the matter.  See related LifeSiteNews.com coverage:  Medical Student Being Failed at University of Manitoba for Not Providing Abortion Option https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2004/mar/04031801.html
