\nDear,<\/p>\n
I recently learned that Motion 408 will come up for debate on March 28th. Prior to this I understand Mr. Warawa’s motion will have to be reviewed by a sub-committee which will decide whether or not it is a votable. It is my hope you, along with our Right Honourable Prime Minister, Stephen Harper will support this motion to address gendercide.<\/p>\n
The rest of this email is meant for Mr. Harper.<\/p>\n
Thank you for serving as my Member of Parliament!
<\/strong><\/p>\nDear Mr. Harper,<\/p>\n
Thank you for your service and dedication to our country!<\/p>\n
I am writing to you because I am concerned about unfair discrimination against females through sex-selective pregnancy termination. Recent studies have shown that this practise is happening in Canada. It is unfortunate, and, in my mind, regrettable that women are being abused and coerced to have an abortion when the sex of their pre-born child is determined to be a female.<\/p>\n
Member of Parliament, Mark Warawa, has announced that he intends to introduce a motion into the House of Commons that would allow Parliament to collectively voice concern and officially condemn this from happening in our country. I understand that Motion 408 would not change public policy but it is my hope that unequivocal condemnation from Parliament will have a strong educative<\/strong> effect that will help to bring an end to gender discriminatory abortions in Canada.<\/p>\nSex-selective pregnancy termination is an affront to the dignity and equality of women and girls. It is my hope that as Prime Minister you will support Motion 408.<\/p>\n
Should you decide not to condemn a practice that 92% of Canadians find abhorrent, then please do not stand in the way of other MPs who courageously take a position.<\/p>\n
Sincerely, <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
