\n <\/span><\/p>\nDear,<\/span><\/p>\nOn May 10th over 15,000 Canadians gathered on Parliament Hill for the National March for Life. You may have attended in person along with many other parliamentarians. If so, I wholeheartedly thank you.<\/span><\/p>\nThe annual gathering on the front lawn the Parliament Buildings and the walk through the streets of Ottawa is the largest of any protest in Canada. Even though you have a busy schedule, I\u2019m sure you noticed it.<\/span><\/p>\nIt is symbolic that thousands of Canadians make their way to Ottawa every year for this event. They gather at the steps of the House of Commons because it is there that those elected to serve Canadians are in a position to enact legislation that will protect children in the womb, and restrict abortion to the greatest extent possible.<\/span><\/p>\nI was pleased to hear that many MP\u2019s spoke at the March for Life. One by one, they thanked the protesters for their presence and spoke in favour of an abortion law.<\/span><\/p>\nCanada, North Korea and China are the only countries in the world without abortion legislation. What irony that Canada, as a champion of human rights and equality, has often expressed concern to those two countries for their egregious human rights violations.<\/span><\/p>\nEvery other Western nation recognizes fetal rights at some point in the pregnancy. European nations such as France and Germany, which are as liberal as Canada, restrict abortion to the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. It\u2019s time that Canada fell into line with every other democracy.<\/span><\/p>\nThe Supreme Court of Canada has instructed Parliament to deal with the abortion issue. Contrary to what some wish us to believe, the Court didn\u2019t give women a \u2018right\u2019 to abortion. The 1988 ruling is full of references to Parliament\u2019s duty to enact legislation that protects fetal rights.<\/span><\/p>\nThe tens of thousands that attended the March for Life on May 10th did so because they\u2019re not willing to accept the status quo. Abortion has never ceased to be debated and debate will continue for as long as pre-born children\u2019s lives are brutally ended in the name of \u201cchoice\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\nCanada needs an abortion law and I hope you can be a part of enacting legislation that protects children in the womb. Should you disagree, I would like to know your reasons why.<\/span><\/p>\nThank you for your service to this great country!<\/span><\/p>\nSincerely,<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Thursday, May 10th nearly 20,000 people attended the March for Life in Ottawa.
