I was very disappointed to hear that you voted against Bill C-225, also known as Cassie and Molly\u2019s Law. This vote would have simply moved discussion of Bill C-225 to the committee stage, yet you could not find it in your heart to allow this, out of fear that the abortion debate might be re-opened.<\/p>\n

C-225 was drafted to extend the Criminal Code protection to \u201cwanted\u201d pre-born children in Canada, who are now left vulnerable to all degrees of violence with no sanction in our justice system. Your \u201cno\u201d vote was a direct statement to pregnant women that their wanted pregnancies are of no concern to you.<\/p>\n

Please know that I, along with the other seventy per cent of Canadians who favoured Molly\u2019s Law, will continue to fight for a law that protects pregnant women and their pre-born children.<\/p>\n

Thank you for voting in favour of Bill C-225! Although the vote did not pass, I am thankful that you stood up for Cassie and Molly; indeed for all pregnant women and their pre-born children. It is encouraging that our representative in the House of Commons is willing to speak for vulnerable Canadians and to know that pregnant women and their wanted pre-born children matter to you.<\/p>\n

Please know that I, along with the other seventy per cent of Canadians who favoured Molly\u2019s Law, will continue to fight for a law that protects pregnant women and their pre-born children. Thank you for the work that you do!<\/p>\n

I noticed that you did not vote on Bill C-225, or Cassie and Molly’s law. As your constituent, I am interested to know whether or not you would have supported it.\u00a0C-225 was drafted to extend the Criminal Code protection to \u201cwanted\u201d pre-born children in Canada, who are now left vulnerable to all degrees of violence with no sanction in our justice system.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, October 19, Canadian MPs were asked to vote that Bill C-225 be \u201cread a second time and referred to the\u00a0Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights\u201d. Regrettably, 209 MPs that evening chose to deny justice to the family of Cassie Kaake and her pre-born daughter, Molly.
